Henny Penny

Part One · The Sky Is Falling!

Henny Penny was in the yard.

Plink! An acorn hit her on the head.

"Oh no! The sky is falling!" she said.

Off she ran to tell the king.

She met Cocky Locky. "Where are you going?"

"The sky is falling! I must tell the king."

"I will come too!" said Cocky Locky.

Off they ran. They met Ducky Lucky.

"The sky is falling!" they said.

"I will come too!" said Ducky Lucky.

Off they ran. They met Goosey Loosey.

"The sky is falling!" they said.

"I will come too!" said Goosey Loosey.

Off they ran. They met Turkey Lurkey.

"The sky is falling!" they said.

"I will come too!" said Turkey Lurkey.

Then they met Foxy Loxy. "I know the way!"

"Follow me!" he said. He had a sly grin.

He led them to a dark hole.

Cocky Locky looked in. "This is a fox den!"

"Run!" Off they ran, all the way home.

Foxy Loxy sat in his den. All alone!

Henny Penny looked up. The sky was still there.

"It was just an acorn," she said. "Oops!"
