Find the missing chicks in this lift-the-flap board book.

Join this fluffy little family on a beautiful walk through the countryside. There’s so much to see as Mama Hen and her brood wind through a flowery meadow, a bluebell wood, a field full of lambs, and a busy farmyard. Along the way, they meet all kinds of baby animals and their parents. But wait—the chicks are disappearing one by one. Whatever could they be up to? Lift the flaps to find the chicks and discover a fantastic surprise ending.

Based on the nursery rhyme “Five Little Ducks,” this lift-the-flap board book is a perfect gift for Easter or to share any day of the year.
Lily Murray has worked as a writer and editor for more than fifteen years. The author of Dinosaurium, illustrated by Chris Wormell; Beneath the Waves, illustrated by Helen Ahpornsiri; and the Five Little series, she enjoys walking, bird-watching, reading with her children, reading without her children, and talking to her dog. She lives in the UK.

Holly Surplice was born and brought up near Dumfries, Scotland, where living on a farm nurtured a fascination for and love of animals that continues to feed her work as an artist and illustrator today. She is also the author-illustrator of Guinea Pig Party and Hush-A-Bye Bunny. After traveling as far from home as the Galapagos, she now lives and works in Edinburgh with her husband, their young daughter, and a Dalmatian named Marbles.
