The Hen’s Tale is a little parallel romance tucked within our story-poem The King and the Beggar Lady, told without words and completely with pictures. Here it is, separated from the main story-poem of The King and the Beggar Lady.

Our award-winning little book The King and the Beggar Lady is a new take on a tale dating to Shakespeare’s days—the one about a king who falls in love with a beggar woman. In our retelling, the Beggar Woman turns the King’s world upside down. But here, a hen has her own story, too.
