“Henny-Penny…” he started. “How do you know the sky is falling?”
“Well, it fell right on my head!” she answered.
Goosie-Brucie puffed his chest feathers instantly and moved right along, shrugging his question away.
Henny-Penny, Rooster-Booster, Ducky-Chucky, and Goosie-Brucie waddled and waddled and waddled until they came to the farm fence. They noticed the eccentric Turkey-Perky pecking on the other side.
“Oh, Turkey-Perky, the sky is falling! The sky is falling! We must alert the king!” Henny-Penny squealed.
“Oh, we must, we must!” Rooster-Booster chimed in.
Again, Ducky-Chucky, now hot as ever and missing his pond, wondered how the sky could fall on a warm summer’s day such as this one.
Goosie-Brucie again asked aloud, “How do we know the sky is falling?”
“It fell right on my head, I say, I say!” Henny-Penny shouted in desperation.
