Chicken Little is reluctantly called to bat by the coach (even though the coach is certain that he will lose the game for them). As a result, he joins his school's baseball team to recover his reputation and his father's pride but is made last until the ninth inning of the last game. Trying to help, Abby encourages Chicken Little to talk to his father, but he really only wants to make his dad proud of him. His only friends are a brand of outcasts like himself: Abby Mallard (who has a crush on him), Runt of the Litter (who is extremely large), and Fish Out of Water (who wears a helmet full of tap water). His father, Buck Cluck, assumes that this 'piece of sky' was actually just an acorn that had fallen off the tree and had hit him on the head, making Chicken Little the laughingstock of the town.Ī year later, Chicken Little has become infamous in the town for being crazy. Eventually, the Chief of the local Fire Department comes in to ask him what's going on, and he explains that a piece of the sky shaped like a stop sign had fallen on his head when he was sitting under the big oak tree in the town square however, he is unable to find the piece. This sends the whole town into a frenzied panic. In the small town of Oakey Oaks, Chicken Little rings the school bell and warns everyone to run for their lives.
