TRANSCRIPT

One warm spring day, a grasshopper was playing in a grassy green field when he noticed a line of ants marching along carrying some seeds. " Where you going with that big load? " the grasshopper asked one of them. " We're taking these seeds to our nest, " squeaked the ant. But it's such a beautiful day, " said the grasshopper. " Come and have fun with me. " " No, " said the ant. " I think you should come work with us. It’s going to be a long winter with lots of snow. You had better start storing your food now! " " Why worry about the winter? It's only spring, and there is lots of food everywhere, " said the grasshopper as he chewed on a large blade of grass. All through the spring the grasshopper did nothing except eat, and sleep, and play. He became quite fat. One day, during the summer, the grasshopper saw the long line of ants again. They were all carrying grains of wheat. " Where you going with all that wheat? " the grasshopper asked. " We are taking it to our nest to save for winter, " said one of the ants. " You should gather some wheat, too. " It's going to be a long winter with lots of snow. " " I have all the food that I need right now, " said the grasshopper. " Why worry about winter? It's still summer! " All summer, the grasshopper did nothing but eat, sleep, and play. He became even fatter! One day, the grasshopper noticed that leaves were falling from the trees. Autumn had come! Among the leaves he again saw the long line of ants all carrying kernels of corn. " Where you going with that corn? " the grasshopper asked one of the ants. The ant replied, " We are taking it to our nest to save for winter. You should gather some corn, too. It's going to be a long winter with lots of snow. " " That's too much work, " said the grasshopper. " Winter is not here yet, and when it comes, I am sure I will be able to find some food. " A few weeks later, winter came, and the snow began to fall. Just as the ants predicted, the snow was very deep. This was not a problem for the ants, though. They were all snug in their nest with lots of good food to eat. The grasshopper, however, had trouble finding food. He was very hungry and very miserable all winter. By the time winter had ended, the grasshopper had learned a valuable lesson: It is important to prepare for the future. Moral of the Story: Work today for what you will need tomorrow.
