Summary

"The Cock, the Mouse, and the Little Red Hen: An Old Tale Retold" by Félicité Lefèvre is a lighthearted children's story centered around an unlikely trio: a cock, a mouse, and a diligent little red hen residing in a colorful house. This tale explores the importance of teamwork, accountability, and the results of one's actions through the interactions of its delightful animal characters. The cock and mouse are depicted as idle and unsupportive, while the energetic little red hen carries most of the domestic burden. A change occurs when sneaky fox and his playful cubs plan to catch them for a meal. The fox makes this a reality, but soon after the red hen cleverly comes up with an escape by making a hole in the sack that restricts them. The story wraps up with their successful return home, inspiring the cock and mouse to value hard work and the benefits of cooperation, and they all live happily, safe from the worries of the fox.
