"NURSERY COMEDIES: Twelve Tiny Plays for Children" by Lady Bell is a collection of short plays intended for children, likely written in the early 20th century. The anthology features twelve delightful and whimsical tales, each designed to engage a young audience and encourage their imagination through friendly characters and lighthearted themes. The opening of the collection introduces the first play titled "What Happened to Henny Penny." In this charming story, Henny Penny, a nervous hen, believes the sky is falling after something lands on her head. As she seeks help, she gathers an ensemble of quirky animal friends, including Cockie Lockie, Ducky Daddles, and Turkish Lurky, all of whom join her on a quest to report to the Queen. The playful dialogues and vibrant interactions among the characters establish a humorous tone, aiming to entertain children while illustrating themes of friendship and adventure.
