'Grass house'

Dear Spider,


Last summer I was collecting food for the winter. I went down to Blossom Street because my friend the Dragonfly had told me that there was a lot of good food to eat there.


When I arrived I looked around me and there was a lot of delicious-looking food. I immediately started to collect the grapes because they were my wife's favourite food.


After I turned around to collect more food I saw a grasshopper relaxing in the sun. He suddenly looked at me and asked, ''What are you doing?'' ''It's summer you don't need to work!'' I looked at him and said, '' I am collecting food for the winter. '' Then I asked him '' Why aren't you doing that?'' He told me, ''Oh come on, there is plenty of time before winter comes!'' '' Come and relax with me!'' I ignored him and kept collecting food.


It was two days away from winter and I was hurrying back to my house. Then I saw the grasshopper who had told me to relax with him in the summer. He looked like he was trying to find something. I went to him and asked, '' Are you looking for something?'' He told me, '' I am trying to look for food since I don't have anything...'' I told him that he could come and live with me and my family for the winter but on only one condition, he needed to collect food next summer. He told me that he would.

Please tell this story to your family.


From your dear friend, the Ant.
