Henny is a baby chick, she is sweet and fluffy just like her friends. But unlike her friends, Henny has one tiny problem. Henny is stuck in her shell. Yes, her tiny legs and her tiny wings peep out. But Henny is most definitely stuck.
Follow Henny on her journey as she and her friends try to solve her problem and along the way end up saving the day.
‘Henny is Stuck’ is the debut picture book from award-winning Dublin-based illustrator and animator Aileen Crossley.
With an illustration style honed and developed over years in a lithographic print studio, the loveable characters are brought to life in a tale of friendship, determination and bravery. Aileen is currently creating an animated short to accompany her picture book.
This book would make the perfect Easter gift.

‘Henny is Stuck’ is Aileen’s debut picture book. It has been a
labour of love for Aileen and through its development the
design work she created for Henny was long-listed for the

Aileen said: “I use my design, illustration, animation and
videography skills on a daily basis. My communication design
degree specialised in illustration and I love to bring this practice
into my work wherever possible. I was thrilled to be awarded
two Irish Design Industry awards, including Emerging Designer
for a stop-motion music video I made using sand. I always
strive to bring original storytelling to my work to make it more
impactful and meaningful. When my work connects people, I
feel happy and fulfilled.”
