The Ant and the Grasshopper

One fine summer’s day, a Grasshopper was chirp-

ing and singing as if he had not a care in the world. An

Ant passed by, struggling with a kernel of corn which he

was carrying to his nest.

The Grasshopper called to the busy Ant, “Come and

visit with me for a while. It is far too nice a day for you to

be working.”

The Ant looked at the Grasshopper. “I see that you

do nothing but sing all day,” he said. “I do not have time

to sing and play. I am storing up food for the long winter

days ahead, and I suggest you do the same.”

The Grasshopper laughed and said, “Why worry

about winter? I have enough food for the present.”

Months passed. The snow lay on the fields. The Ant

was content. In his house was food to eat to last all

winter. But the Grasshopper had nothing to eat. “I am

dying of hunger,” he said sadly. “If only I had spent time

over the summer getting ready for the winter…”
