Summary "The Tale of Henrietta Hen" by Arthur Scott Bailey is a children's story written in the early 20th century, specifically in the 1920s. Part of the "Slumber-Town Tales" series, this book chronicles the whimsical adventures of Henrietta, a proud and boastful hen who is enamored with her own beauty and the eggs she lays. The tale offers a lighthearted exploration of themes like vanity, family, and self-discovery through the interactions of farmyard animals. In this charming narrative, Henrietta Hen believes she is the most beautiful bird on the farm, constantly bragging about her speckles and exceptional egg-laying. Her journey takes an unexpected turn when she hatches a duckling among her chicks, unaware of its true identity. Henrietta grapples with the challenges of being a mother while managing her self-importance and the humorous criticisms of her neighbors. As the story unfolds, Henrietta's experiences at the county fair ultimately lead her to a realization about her own worth and the emptiness of her previous vanity, culminating in an unexpected victory that teaches her humility and the importance of family.
