Review by: Leonore H. Dvorkin on May 09, 2010 :
This story has everything: adventure, drama, believable animal and human characters, a happy ending, and values that are taught in an entirely unpreachy way. I also think that children older than eight would enjoy it. They would surely enjoy reading it to their younger siblings! I like the fact that the book is not illustrated, except for the cover photo of a vigorous white hen who is a perfect match to Henrietta. That is, the vivid images in the story really encourage children to use their imaginations as they get caught up in the exciting story.

Review by: Reginald George on May 09, 2010 :
I can't stop thinking about Henrietta. As a parent I want my children to read books about her because she's very entertaining and still manages to express the values I grew up with. The values I would want any child to have. My friend's 10 year old daughter loved it. Henrietta evokes that gentle feeling of peace and beauty in the tradition of books like all things bright and beautiful or Dr. Doolittle where animals are real and their hopes and dreams actually matter. Henrietta stays fresh and original by not trying to be trendy or full of gimmicks. The story could have been written any time in the last hundred years, and that's what makes it special. Give the chicken a try. I'm looking forward to her next adventure, and I'm not even a child.

I just found this brand new story. What a gem!!! An inspiring tale of a family of farm animals banding together to rid their farm of evil intruders. Fascinating characters and an tale that has great rhythm and teaches solid life lessons. Perfect for bed time reading. I can't wait for the sun to set. Keep it up Mr. Nash!!
