The story of a resourceful, independent, persistent hen, told with a sense of humor. Nice short book with good illustrations. A perfect story to read on a snowy day. My 2.5 y.o loves to hear it again and again.

My kids LOVE the goofy adventures of Minerva Louise. She's like the character Rose from the Golden Girls in the body of a hen. Here she wants to keep snug on a snowy day and we follow her attempts to locate what she thinks will make a good hat. Totally giggle-worthy.

Such a simple little story with a winsome little heroine. After meeting her in a bookstore I fell hopelessly in love. I will admit that visually she struck me to the heart and of course there is her name. My granddaughter reads about her adventures every night and she understands that even though she gets to hear the stories the books are still Grandma's. If she is properly respectful of Minerva Louise I will pass her along one day. Not yet. This charming little hen must stay with me for a while

My kids love Minerva Louise. My 9yo even named his hen after her. This is our favorite of her books, not too many words, lots of cute humorous pictures. My 1 ond 4 yos love it and my older kids like reading it to them. We bought copies for nieces and nephews.

I read this to my Kdg students. They noticed there weren't any quotaions marks in the text..yea for them! They wondered why and would like to write to the author! help!! what a great language activity!

This book serves two purposes. Young children love to have it read to them. Older children like the humor of Minerva Louise's judgement errors. It's a very enjoyable book, ages 2 to 10.
