The Hen's Dream

New Hampshire hen was so happy to see Red Rooster and all her hen friends: Speckled Sussex, Leghorn, Orpington Black hen, Araucana hen, Silkie hen and the Easter Eggers. "They came back!' she thought. Her hen friends lined up and each laid an egg for her.

When she saw the different colored eggs they laid, she stood up excitedly to take a closer look, but was awakened by her little chick's cry. "It was just a dream!" she realized. New Hampshire hen was sad. Would she ever get to see the colorful eggs she'd heard so much about?

Dolores D. Bennett was born in the Philippines. She wrote articles about anything that inspired her to think or made her laugh. However, the demands of being a teacher made her put writing aside. After retiring as a GED teacher, she'd planned to go to Spain as a missionary in March of 2020, but Covid-19 cancelled her plans. Being quarantined gave her the opportunity to write her biography, His Hand on Me, which was published in 2020. In 2021, she republished her first children's book: The Big Black Feather, and wrote five new ones. The Wise Hen (prequel to The Big Black Feather), The Hen's Dream (sequel to The Big Black Feather), My Vaquita, PupPup The Bully, and Stories of Boogie's Friends.
