The Little Red Hen
Once upon a time, there was a Little Red Hen who lived on a farm. One day, she found a grain of wheat. "Who will help me plant this wheat?" she asked. The Pig said, "Not I." The Cat said, "Not I." The Dog said, "Not I." "Then I will do it myself," said the Little Red Hen, and she did. When the wheat grew tall, she asked, "Who will help me cut this wheat?" The Pig, the Cat, and the Dog all said, "Not I." So the Little Red Hen cut the wheat herself. Then she asked, "Who will help me take this wheat to the mill to be ground into flour?" Again, her friends refused. So, she took it herself. Finally, when the flour was ready, she asked, "Who will help me bake this bread?" "Not I," said the Pig. "Not I," said the Cat. "Not I," said the Dog. "Then I will do it myself," said the Little Red Hen, and she baked a delicious loaf of bread. When the bread was ready, she asked, "Who will help me eat this bread?" "I will!" said the Pig. "I will!" said the Cat. "I will!" said the Dog. "No," said the Little Red Hen. "I will eat it myself," and she did.
