First sentence: Minerva Louise loved the way the snow sparkled on the house with the red curtains.
Premise/plot: Minerva Louise returns to the house with red curtains. She's curious about the sparkly tree topped with a hen and the goats on the roof. Why is the farmer wearing a red hat? So many questions this hen has. She's back and as silly as ever.
My thoughts: It's Christmas and Minerva Louise is confused about all the changes inside and out! I really am fond of this chicken! My favorite is her confusion about why the strange man was eating her farmers' breakfast!

I love Minerva Louise too! My teenaged son remembered reading these books when he was young and named our friendliest chicken after her!
