A mother’s life lived is same…not just across religions, regions and class but even in animals. A sweet story about a hen who laid eggs in the coop that were whisked away. Her only desire to sit on one and hatch it. The story beautifully depicts the struggles and highs and lows of a mother’s life. How does it matter if you are a hen or a human. The emotions and struggles are universal. The narrator has a very soothing voice and you can easily imagine her as the hen. And her voice change over for other characters is admirable too.
