Another artist who can surprise and delight with her originality is Jan Ormerod. In The Story of Chicken Licken, she tells the traditional story in speech bubbles as a cast of children act out their version for an audience of families and friends. As the story unfolds on the brightly lit stage, more stories are happening in the silhouetted audience. Lots to engage the attention of young readers (and their parents).
