Henny Penny, more commonly known in the United States asChicken Littleand sometimes asChicken Licken, is a Europeanfolk talewith a moral in the form of acumulative taleabout achickenwho believes that the world is coming to an end. The phrase"The sky is falling!"features prominently in the story, and has passed into the English language as a common idiom indicating ahystericalor mistaken belief that disaster is imminent. Similar stories go back more than 25 centuries;[1]it continues to be referred to in a variety of media. Once the story began to appear in the English language, the titles by which they went varied considerably and have continued to do so. John Greene Chandler (1815-1879), an illustrator and wood engraver fromPetersham, Massachusetts, published an illustrated children's book titledThe Remarkable Story of Chicken Littlein 1840.[11][12][13]In this American version of the story, the characters' names are Chicken Little, Hen-Pen, Duck-Luck, Goose-Loose, and Fox-Lox; Chicken Little is frightened by a leaf falling on her tail.[14] The first use of the name "Chicken Little" to "one who warns of or predicts calamity, especially without justification" recorded by theMerriam-WebsterDictionaryis in 1895,[19]but idiomatic use of the name significantly predates that attestation. In fact, this usage is recorded in the United States very soon after the publication of Chandler's illustrated children's book in 1840. Already, in 1842, a journal article about theGovernment of Haitireferred to "Chicken Little" in an offhand manner.[20]An "oration" delivered to the city of Boston onJuly 4, 1844, contains the passage:To hear their harangues on the eve of the election, one would suppose that the fable of Chicken Little was about to become a truth, and that the sky was actually falling.
