Harry and the Careless Chick by Ruth Chesney and published by Ritchie Christian Media.
Harry is a little boy who lives on a farm with his parents, his sister Susie and a variety of loveable farm animals. This story is based on the Lord Jesus’ illustration in Matthew 23:37, and features Henrietta the hen and her three fluffy chicks.
When Granda brings his dog Rex to the farm, the chicks are in danger, especially the smallest one who is too engrossed in chasing a butterfly to hear the warning clucks of his mother. The chick reaches Henrietta’s wings just in time, and Granda uses this event to explain to Harry that the Lord Jesus is calling boys and girls to come to Him for shelter.
