“The Little Brown Hen” is a new twist in an old classic fable, “The Little Red Hen.” In creating this book, Sloan realized that many of our old fables of the western world are in need of updates to help us grapple with new lessons more applicable in a new generation. This is the first in her planned “reFabled” series that will bring powerful new concepts to bear from some of our most beloved classics.
If you recall the age-old story of “the Little Red Hen” told in classrooms worldwide for generations, you'll remember that “the Little Red Hen” is an industrious little hen who knows how to draw hard boundary lines. From this story kids learn the value of hard work and personal responsibility, but little more. The poor Little Red Hen remains unsuccessful at motivating her peers to see a better result.
“The Little Brown Hen” is an answer to the need for new lessons for today. It speaks to both kids and adults about the value of leaning on others. In this updated tale, “the Little Brown Hen” meets “old Red” and teaches her a few valuable lessons, helping her connect better with those around her and become more productive with her time. Leigh Sloan, author of the groundbreaking cultural commentary Pride and Privilege: expand your influence in cultural chaos, brings us this refreshing cultural shift made for children and loved by people of all ages.
Through beautiful illustrations and engaging storytelling, “The Little Brown Hen” helps people of all ages grapple with the powerful life wisdom of recognizing the treasure in others and inspiring them towards a greater purpose.
“The Little Brown Hen” is currently free and available for digital download for 5 days (from now until January 12th) and currently at a full 5 star rating on Amazon. Get your copy here. A free companion lesson plan for elementary students may be found at refabled.co.
Leigh Sloan hopes “The Little Brown Hen” will inspire a new generation of leaders to see the value of others and galvanize our personal connections for the greater good.

Through engaging storytelling and heartfelt moments, children learn that everyone has value and that cooperation leads to greater success. A wonderful story that encourages kindness, teamwork, and meaningful conversations—one children will want to read again and again.” - D'Ette Owen
