Interrupting Chicken and the Elephant of Surprise

<p>SURPRISE! The little red chicken is back in David Ezra Stein&#146;s follow-up to the Caldecott Honor book <i>Interrupting Chicken</i>.<br><br>It&#146;s homework time for the little red chicken who has just learnt what every good story should have: an elephant of surprise. Or is it as her papa suggests an element of surprise? As they dive into some stories &#150; looking for the parts that make you go &#147;Whoa! I didn&#146;t know that was going to happen!&#148; &#150; Papa is sure he can convince Chicken he&#146;s right. After all there are no elephants in The Ugly Duckling Rapunzel or The Little Mermaid... Or are there?</p>
