This book is about grasshopper and the ant. Ant worked very hard all the summers and saved the food for the winters while as Grasshopper had fun during summers and didnt save or work during that time. During the winter he struggled to have food. This book is fiction. I would recommend it to everyone.

The grasshopper didn’t do any work and when the winter came, he was cold and hungry. The ant let the grasshopper in his house and it was warm in the ant’s house. The moral of the story is to be prepared but I think it also shows that we need to be kind.
