THE ANT AND THE


GRASSHOPPER
IAN ORDINANZA
GRADE 11-MOLAVE-ICT/TVL
z

It was a hot summer day. A grasshopper was lying in the


shade, relaxing from the heat of the sun when an ant
passed by. The ant was dragging a huge seed in order to
store it for the winter.
z

Just looking at the ant made the grasshopper feel tired. "Ant, why do
you work all day long? Why don’t you sit for a while and sing a song
with me?” he asked, and he took out his violin.
z

“I am gathering food for the winter when it will be cold and


there will be no food. It would be a good idea if you did the
same," the ant answered.
z

“Oh Ant, why worry about the winter? There is plenty of


food right now!” the grasshopper replied. The ant walked
away with his load, leaving the grasshopper playing his
violin and singing.
z

Winter came and just as the ant had warned, Grasshopper had
no food stored. So he went to the ant. “Hello again, Ant! I came
to sing you a song in return for some food.”
z

All summer long I was working hard, while you were singing
and laughing at me. As a result I have a full tummy now and
you are hungry.”
