Henny is Stuck by Aileen Crossley

Henny is a baby chick, she is sweet and fluffy just like her friends. But unlike her friends, Henny has one tiny problem. Henny is stuck in her shell. Yes, her tiny legs and her tiny wings peep out. But Henny is most definitely stuck. Follow Henny on her journey as she and her friends try to solve her problem and along the way end up saving the day. ‘Henny is Stuck’ is the debut picture book from award-winning Dublin-based illustrator and animator Aileen Crossley. With an illustration style honed and developed over years in a lithographic print studio, the loveable characters are brought to life in a tale of friendship, determination and bravery. Aileen is currently creating an animated short to accompany her picture book. This book would make the perfect Easter gift.
