    One summer day, a grasshopper met some ants. They were carrying food to
    their home under the ground. “Good day” said the grasshopper. “Isn’t it a fine
    day?” The ants didn’t stop to talk. The grasshopper watched them. Then he
    said: “It’s a lovely day .The sun is shining .The birds are singing. Why do you
    work so hard? Now it is time to sit in the sun.” “No, it isn’t” said the ants. ”Now
    is the time to work. We aren’t lazy. When winter comes, we won’t find any food.
    We must collect our food now and store it for the winter.”
    The grasshopper laughed at the ants and lay in the sun listening to the birds.
    Weeks and months went by. The days became cold. The wind blew and it rained.
    Soon snow covered the fields. It was winter. Under the ground, the ants were
    warm and happy. They had all the food they needed. The grasshopper jumped
    from place to place. He was looking for a warm, dry home. He was thin, cold and
    hungry. He went to the ants and asked for some food. ”Oh no!” said the ant.
    “You sang all summer, so in the winter you’ll starve.
    MORAL: "Save up for rainy days”
