 The Little Red Hen
Once upon a time, there was a little red hen who lived
on a farm. She was friends with a lazy dog, a sleepy
cat, and a noisy mouse. One day the little red hen
found some kernels on the ground. The little red hen
had an idea. She would plant the kernels. The little red
hen asked her friends,
"Who will help me plant the kernels?"
"Not I," barked the lazy dog.
"Not I," purred the sleepy cat.
"Not I," squeaked the noisy mouse.
"Then I will," said the little red hen. So the little
red hen planted the kernels by herself.
When the kernels had grown, the little red hen
asked her friends, "Who will help me harvest the
corn?“
"Not I," barked the lazy dog.
"Not I," purred the sleepy cat.
"Not I," squeaked the noisy mouse.
"Then I will," said the little red hen. So the little
red hen harvested the corn by herself. When all
the corn was harvested, the little red hen asked
her friends, "Who will help me cook the corn?"
"Not I," barked the lazy dog.
"Not I," purred the sleepy cat.
"Not I," squeaked the noisy mouse.
"Then I will," said the little red hen. So the little
red hen cooked the corn by herself.
The tired little red hen asked her friends, "Who
will help me eat the corn?"
"I will," barked the lazy dog.
"I will," purred the sleepy cat.
"I will," squeaked the noisy mouse.
"No!" said the little red hen.
"I will." And the little red hen ate the corn.
