Rosie's Walk

by Pat Hutchins, Pat Hutchins (Illustrator)

Overview

Rosie the hen leaves the chicken coop and sets out for a little walk. Right behind her is the fox, slyly trying to catch up with her. Rosie's walk is quiet, uneventful and eventually leads her back to the coop, blissfully unaware of the fox's travails as he tries — unsuccessfully — to navigate the obstacle course that Rosie has led him through.

Editorial Reviews

One of the savvier of the ubiquitous board book adaptations, this slapstick picture-puzzle is just right for toddler, who will easily follow the oblivious hen's stroll through the farm while the hapless fox is foiled at each turn. It's all in the pictures.

— Time

"A sunny, slapstick silent comedy."
