Henny Penny, more commonly known in the United States as Chicken Little and sometimes as Chicken Licken, is a folk tale with a moral in the form of a cumulative tale about a chicken who believes the world is coming to an end.

[Tilly2]

'Once upon a time there was a little chick called Chicken Licken who lived on a farmyard in the countryside.
One day, Chicken Licken went to the woods. He stopped by an oak tree. Suddenly, a tiny acorn dropped from the tree – wheeeeeeeeee! and hit Chicken Licken on the head – BONK!
Unfortunately, Chicken Licken didn’t see the acorn. He looked up the clear blue sky. “Oh, no!” he said, “The sky is falling, I must tell the king.”
