The Little Red Hen

Kienjess: Once upon a time, there lived a little red hen on a farm. She had three neighbors who
were also her friends - the lazy dog, a sleepy cat, and a noisy duck.

One day, the little red hen found some wheat seeds on the ground and decided to plant
them. So, she asked her friends..

Little Red Hen (Ella): “Who will help me plant the seeds?”
Lazy Dog (Archie)/Sleepy Cat (Brett), Noisy Duck (Sofia) : “Not I!”
Little Red Hen (Ella): “Well, then I will!”
Kienjess: Said the little red hen and planted the seeds all by herself.
The wheat grew in a few months. So, the little red hen again asked her friends
Little Red Hen (Ella): “Who will help me cut the wheat?”
Lazy Dog (Archie)/Sleepy Cat (Brett), Noisy Duck (Sofia) : “Not I!”
Little Red Hen (Ella): “Then I will!”
Kienjess: Said the little red hen, and again cut the grown crop and threshed it all by herself using
her wings.
Now, it was time to ground the harvested wheat to make flour. So, the little red hen asked
all her friends
Little Red Hen (Ella) : “Who will help me take the wheat to the mill?”
Kienjess: Her lazy friends again replied the same.

Lazy Dog (Archie)/Sleepy Cat (Brett), Noisy Duck (Sofia) : “Not I!”
Kienjess: The little red hen again complied and took the wheat to the mill all by herself. She got it
grounded into flour and carried the heavy sack all the way back.

The exhausted hard-working hen then asked her friends to help her bake the bread. But
as expected, all of them replied

Lazy Dog (Archie)/Sleepy Cat (Brett), Noisy Duck (Sofia) : “Not I!”
Kienjess: So, she baked the bread all by herself.

When she had finally baked the deliciously smelling bread, the little red hen asked her
friends for the last time

Little Red Hen (Ella) : “Who will help me eat the bread?”

Kienjess: This time the dog, cat and duck all replied
Lazy Dog (Archie)/Sleepy Cat (Brett), Noisy Duck (Sofia) : “I will!”

Kienjess: This surprised the little red hen, and she said,

Little Red Hen (Ella) : “You refused to help me with any of the work before. You are all lazy, so now
none of you will get the bread!”

Kienjess: So, the little red hen, along with her chicks, ate the tasty bread all by herself.

The little red hen taught her friends a nice lesson in the end, right?

See, this is what happens when you are too lazy to do any work.

Moral of the Story: Being lazy is a very bad habit
