come outside and play with me?" The ant replied, "I cannot. I am storing food
for the winter when there won't be anything to eat!" The grasshopper only
laughed at the ant and said, "Why are you worrying now? There is plenty of
food!" and continued to play, while the ant worked hard.
When winter came, the grasshopper did not find a single grain of food to
eat. It began to starve and feel very The grasshopper saw how the
hardworking ant had plenty of food and realized its foolishness.
