The Little Red Hen Once upon a time there was a little red hen. He lived with a pig, a duck and a cat.
They all lived in a nice little house that the little red hen liked to keep clean and tidy. The little red hen
worked hard at her jobs all day. The others never helped. Although they said they intended to do it, they
were all too lazy. The pig liked to grunt outside in the mud, the duck used to swim in the pond all day,
and the cat enjoyed lying in the sun, grunting. One day the little red hen was working in the garden
when she found a grain of corn. -Who will plant this grain of corn? She asked. -“Not me,” the pig
growled from his muddy area in the garden. - “Not me,” the duck quacked from his pond. "Not me," the
cat purred from his place in the sun. Then the little red hen went to look for a good piece of land,
scratched it with her paws and planted the grain of corn. During the summer the corn grain grew. It first
grew into a tall green stalk, then ripened in the sun to a beautiful golden color. The little red hen saw
that the corn was ready to cut. “Who helped me cut the corn?” The little red hen asked to see if he
remembered but the cerfo said grunting - “I don't”, from his patch of mud in the garden. Maybe the
duck quacks - “Not me”, from its pond. - “Not me,” purred the cat from his place in the sun. - “Very well
then, I will cut it myself,” said the little red hen.
