The Little Red Hen
One day as the Little Red Hen was scratching in a field, she found a grain of wheat. “This wheat should be planted” she said. “Who will help me plant this grain of wheat?”
“I wont,” meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,” squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,” clucked the Little Red Hen. And she did.
“Then I will.”
Soon the
wheat grew to
be tall and
yellow.
“The wheat is ripe,” clucked the Little Red Hen. “Who will help me to cut it?”
“I wont,” meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,” squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,” clucked the Little Red Hen. And she did.
“Then I will.”
When the wheat was cut, the Little Red Hen said, “Who will help me to thresh the wheat?”
“I wont,” meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,” squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,” clucked the Little Red Hen. And she did.
“Then I will.”
When the wheat was threshed, the Little Red Hen said, “Who will help me take this wheat to the mill?”
“I wont,” meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,” squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,” clucked the Little Red Hen. And she did.
“Then I will.”
So she took the wheat to the mill and it had to be ground into flour. Then she said, “Who will help make this flour into bread?”
“I wont,” meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,” squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,” clucked the Little Red Hen. And she did.
“Then I will.”
She made and
baked the
bread. Then
she said, “Who
will help me to
eat the bread?
“I will!” meowed the cat.
“I will!”
“I will!”
squeaked
the mouse.
“I will!”
“I will!”
baaed the
sheep.
“I will!”
“No, No!” said the Little Red Hen. “I will do that.” And she did!
“I will do that!”
Reflection… How do you think the Little Red Hen felt
doing all the work by herself?
How do you think she felt when the other animals wanted to eat the bread?
How do you think the other animals felt when the Little Red Hen told them that they could not eat the bread?
What lesson did the other animals learn?
