Description:

Chanticleer is a proud rooster who lives on a small farm with a poor widow and her daughters. He crows beautifully and everyone admires him. One night he dreams of a fearsome beast, and soon a sly fox appears. The fox flatters Chanticleer, asking him to close his eyes and sing, and then grabs him! But the clever rooster finds a way to trick the fox back. Based on a tale by Geoffrey Chaucer, this Caldecott Medal winner teaches children not to be fooled by flattery.
