Queenie를 집에 데려다 준 가족들은 다시 집으로 돌아오고 강아지 브루노도 Queenie에게 빼앗겼던 따뜻한 바구니에 다시 편안히 누웠습니다. 이로써 모든 일이 잘 되었다면... 좋겠지만... 다음날 아침 Queenie는 해가 밝기 전에 농장을 나와서 호수와 숲을 지나고 도로를 건너고 공원을 거쳐 다시 Caitlin의 집으로 돌아왔습니다. 브루노가 다시 바구니를 빼앗겼어요. Queenie가 광주리에 알을 낳자 다시 농장으로 돌아갔어요. 매일 아침 Queenie는 농장에서 집으로 와서 알만 낳고 다시 돌아갔어요. 그리고 시간은 흘러 엄마가 예쁜 아기를 낳아서 가족이 한명 더 늘었답니다. 이야기는 여기서 끝나는 걸까요?^^ 브루노가 광주리로 돌아가 Queenie가 낳은 달걀을 품고 있자 삐약 삐약 병아리들이 탄생했어요. 농장에 병아리를 주고 온 가족들.. 그런데 Caitlin이 병아리 한마리를 안주머니에 넣어서 갖고 왔어요. 이제 새로운 이야기들이 계속될 거에요!!!

큰 사이즈의 | 닫기x |  What is 페이퍼백?
표지가 두꺼운 판지나 보드지가 아닌 비교적 얇은 종이를 사용해서 만든 책이며, 실박음질 대신에 풀로 제본처리하는 경우가 많습니다. 일반적으로 하드커버나 보드북에 비해서 가격이 저렴합니다. 소프트커버로 불리우기도 합니다. 책의 이음새 부분이 접히거나 휘는 내구성이 그리 좋지는 않은 책입니다.

Annotation
Caitlin and her parents rescue a hen from a lake, name her, and take her home with them, but even after they return her to the farm where she lives, her presence is still felt in Caitlin's family.
From the Publisher
When Caitlin's dad rescues a hen from drowning, it's only the beginning of the story. Queenie, the hen, decides to return the favor in a most surprising way. Every morning she walks all the way from the farm to Caitlin's house to lay an egg in Caitlin's dog's bed. Then, one day, the dog lays down on top of Queenie's eggs...and that's quite a story! Bob Graham tells the warm and uncommon tale of a family, a dog, and a chicken who feel very much at home together!
Publisher's Weekly
"This quirky tale of a chicken and her adoptive family will have animal lovers cheering," said PW. "Children will giggle, and Queenie and Caitlin enthusiasts will hope there's another story about the endearing pair in the works." Ages 5-up.
Children's Literature - Leila Toledo
Caitlin's father rescues a hen from drowning in the lake. They take her home and she promptly becomes a part of the family. Even Bruno, the dog, accepts Queenie as part of the family. The family finally decides that Queenie needs to live on a farm. But Queenie is so attached to her city family that she returns daily and leaves them a gift in Bruno's bed basket. The results are interesting.
School Library Journal
When a family out for a walk spies a bantam furiously paddling to keep her head above water, Dad jumps into the lake to rescue her. Queenie (as she is named) fits right in. In fact, she displaces Bruno the dog, taking over his cozy basket. Mom has an inkling that the fowl has a home of her own, so they all head over the bridge spanning a highway to the local farm. Home at last, the hen decides to repay her rescuers by making a daily visit to Bruno's basket to lay an egg. Pictures display young Caitlin's birthday cake and breakfasts made from Queenie's eggs--as well as mom's growing belly. In all the confusion of bringing home a new baby brother, the pre-schooler forgets to collect the eggs. Bruno reclaims his basket, settling in for a nice long nap, and in so doing, incubates them until they hatch. The chicks go to live on the farm with their mom--all but one. This lively story is seasoned with some humorous illustrations that deserve an extra look in order to catch all of the small details. The father sports an earring, ponytail, and five-o'clock shadow; the mother's hair is a lovely shade of punk rock pink. Dad sits on the couch knitting, while mom and Caitlin share a good book. Graham has created a lovable, quirky clan, and an equally likable hen.--Lisa Marie Gangemi, Sousa Elementary School, Port Washington, NY
Kirkus Reviews
From Graham (Greetings from Sandy Beach, 1992, etc.), a genial story about a surprising kind of tolerance, featuring a lovable family, a hen, and a dog.
When Caitlin's father saves a hen from drowning in a lake, the family christens her "Queenie," then returns her to her owner, a local farmer. They haven't seen the last of Queenie, who makes daily pilgrimages to their house to leave an egg in Bruno the dog's bed. Caitlin collects the "gifts" for awhile, but becomes forgetful when a new baby joins the family. The eggs accumulate until Queenie stops visiting, and, in a humorous twist, Bruno hatches the chicks. The chicks are promptly taken to the farmer's, but Caitlin manages to keep one for home. A true sense of family and acceptance comes through in Graham's illustrations; they are loosely sketched and very appealing, while his use of small panels in the oversize pages gives the story momentum and direction.
Booklist
With funny, affectionate line-and-watercolor pictures and a story full of surprises, Graham's large-size picture book moves far beyond the simple static situation that characterizes so many books for young preschoolers. There is an adventure from the first page, when Caitlin's dad rescues a hen from the lake. The family names her Queenie, and she makes herself very much at home in the dog's basket. Then they take Queenie back to the farm she came from, and Bruno gets his basket back, but the determined hen makes the difficult journey back every morning to lay her egg in Bruno's basket, and as Graham says at every stage, "The story might have ended there, but it didn't!" Another baby is born in the family and . . . Not only is the story a saga, but the pictures, sometimes several to a page, are packed with feeling and action that extend the characters and the dramas of ordinary life. Brave Dad wears a ponytail and an earring and struggles with his knitting. Mom bakes Caitlin's birthday cake with an egg that Queenie lays for them. Bruno reclaims his basket and hatches the eggs. This is a book that will delight children for many readings. Hazel Rochman |
