The Egg Hunt of Lola
Lola the hen cannot find her egg. The whole farm helps look.
Cluck, cluck, cluck! Lola the lamb was in a flap. Her egg was gone! She had left it in the nest for just one minute, and now there was nothing but a few feathers.
Ollie the kitten came to help. ‘Let’s look,’ said Ollie. They searched the barn, the garden and the haystack. They looked under every bucket. But the egg was nowhere.
Percy the pony joined in. ‘I’ll look in the flowerpot,’ said Percy. And that’s where they heard it, a tiny tap-tap-tap. Something was moving inside a warm little nest.
Crack! The egg wobbled and opened. Out popped a fluffy yellow chick. ‘Peep!’ said the chick. Lola had rolled the egg to a warm spot and forgotten! She gasped, and then she laughed.
The whole farm gathered to see. ‘Welcome, little one,’ said Lola, nuzzling her new baby. ‘And thank you, my friends, for helping.’ That night, the chick fell asleep under her mother’s wing.
