THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER

Once there was an ant and a grasshopper who lived in a field.

Every day, Ant got up early and walked far to gather seeds. She balanced one seed on her head at a
time, walked it back to her home, and then went again to the field to gather more. She was very
small, so the walk was very long. She worked the whole day, without ever stopping to rest.

As Ant worked, Grasshopper spent his days playing music, lazing in the sun. “Why do you work so
hard, Ant?” he laughed. “Summer is here! Why waste the sunshine gathering seeds.

Ant ignored Grasshopper’s teasing and continued gathering, which only made Grasshopper laugh
even more. “You are a silly little ant,” he said.

Autumn came, and then winter. The days were short. Snow fell on the farmer’s field, burying the
plants and seeds that had been so easy to get.

Grasshopper had no food to eat. “What will I do? I am hungry,” Grasshopper said to himself. Then,
he remembered how many seeds Ant had stashed away during the summer.

Grasshopper hurried to Ant’s home. He knocked on her door. “Ant,” he said, “Give me some seeds?”
Ant looked at Grasshopper.

“I worked hard all summer long, while you laughed at me,” Ant said. “You should have worked in the
summer instead of singing and dancing. Then you would have a full belly now.”

Good to Know!
Graphing is a pictorial way of representing relationships between various quantities,
parameters, or measurable variables in nature. A graph basically summarizes how one
quantiy changes if another quantity that is related to it also changes.
