Description

After viewing Goosey-Goosey's brood of chicks, Henny the hen longs for her very own offspring. But each morning a greedy, elf-like ""Tomten"" steals her newly laid egg, insisting he needs ""a little yummy for my hungry, hungry tummy."" Henny awakens her friend, Hedgie the hedgehog, with a loud wail, ""No eggs, no chicks, no peeping babies,"" and he offers to help Henny put a stop to the Tomten's thievery.
