So, what happens when three hens and a fancy peacock decide to swap jobs? Hilarity ensues as the three hens get all gussied up and attempt to strut their stuff, while the peacock clucks and clucks and tries to lay an egg. Talk about a rather unusual barnyard adventure! It doesn’t take the hens long to discover that prancing down the road while decked out in their finest beads and baubles isn’t as easy as it seems. Meanwhile, the peacock realizes that no matter what he does, he’ll never ever be able to lay an egg!
Written by Lester L. Laminack with comic illustrations by Henry Cole, Three Hens and a Peacock will have anyone who reads it clucking…er, chuckling out loud with every turn of the page. (Ages 2-4)

It's a cute story. Takes probably about 5-10 minutes to read. The pictures are colorful and nice, and the story is well developed. It offers a cute message about jealousy and finding your niche. It is not my daughters favorite, but it is also not her least favorite. I don't have "buyer's remorse" for this purchase.

My 3 year old liked it ok the first time, but it's not one she chooses to read again.

When reading this book my girls loved the story. We also added different voices and accents for the animals.

My two year old was bored with it but the pictures were pretty good.

Loved it! I really liked the part where the hens donned their jewels to attract potential customers. Only a peacock can do what a peacock does.
