Nora's Chicks
by Patricia MacLachlan. Illustrated by Kathryn Brown
The prairie is very different from the forested hills Nora is used to. Most of all, it’s lonely. Papa has the cows he sings to as he milks them. Baby brother Milo has a dog to follow him wherever he goes. But Nora has no one and nothing to call her own until Papa brings home a dozen chicks and two geese. But what will happen when one of her beloved chicks goes missing?
Today's activity will be making a cornhusk doll to take home!
