Lena liked to sit in the garden and watch the chickens. She is surprised when Alma does not seem interested in hatching the egg that she has just laid. Quickly, Lena makes a decision and jumps in herself already dreaming of surprising the others with her own little chick.

Lena loves the chickens on her farm, but she wishes she had a little chick. After Alma the hen lays an egg, Lena retrieves it and decides to try to help it hatch. But she needs the help of her family if she is going to do this.
There is lots of factual information about hatching chicks in this little picture book. There is also some refreshing honesty about how an egg is laid as well as the foibles of human intrusion into a natural process. The pictures are beautifully detailed, and I especially liked the pictures of the countdown of the egg development.
