Chicken Licken is an entertaining Level 2 reader in the Read It Yourself series, designed for children who are becoming more confident in their reading abilities. The story follows Chicken Licken, who believes that the sky is falling after something unexpected lands on his head.
Determined to warn others, Chicken Licken sets off on a journey to tell the king. Along the way, he meets different animals who also believe the news and decide to join him. As the story unfolds, the tale shows how quickly information can spread and how important it is to think carefully before reacting.
Written with simple sentences and slightly more challenging vocabulary than Level 1, this book supports reading development while keeping the story fun and engaging. Bright illustrations help bring the characters and events to life, making it easier for young readers to follow along.
Perfect for guided or independent reading, Chicken Licken Level 2 helps build confidence, improve comprehension, and introduces children to a classic fairy tale filled with humour, repetition, and valuable life lessons.
