Lena likes to sit in farmyard and watch the chickens. But something is missing in this happy group of hens... A sweet little chick!

How fortunate that plump little Alma had just laid an egg. But to Lena's surprise Alma does not seem interested in hatching it.

Lena makes a snap decision and attempts to hatch the egg herself. However, hatching an egg is more difficult than Lena thinks, and the journey from egg to chick is a long one.

This is a sweet book about the challenges and joys of being a parent.
