The Little Red Hen
Once upon a time, there was a Little Red Hen. She lived on a farm with a lazy dog, a sleepy cat, and a noisy duck. One day, the Little Red Hen found a grain of wheat. "Who will help me plant this wheat?" she asked. "Not I," said the dog. "Not I," said the cat. "Not I," said the duck. So, the Little Red Hen planted it herself.
Soon, the wheat grew tall. "Who will help me cut this wheat?" she asked. "Not I," said the dog. "Not I," said the cat. "Not I," said the duck. So, the Little Red Hen cut it herself.
Then, she asked, "Who will help me take this wheat to the mill to be ground into flour?" "Not I," said the dog. "Not I," said the cat. "Not I," said the duck. So, the Little Red Hen took it to the mill herself. She brought back the flour.
"Who will help me bake this flour into bread?" she asked. "Not I," said the dog. "Not I," said the cat. "Not I," said the duck. So, the Little Red Hen baked the bread herself. It smelled delicious!
When the bread was ready, the Little Red Hen asked, "Who will help me eat this bread?" "I will!" said the dog. "I will!" said the cat. "I will!" said the duck. "No, you won't!" said the Little Red Hen. "I will eat it myself!" And she did, all by herself.
