He was making the store for the winter. “Come and sing with me! Don’t work so hard”, said the Grasshopper “Let’s have fun together.” 2.“I must store food for the winter”, said the Ant, “and you must do the same.” “Don’t worry about winter, it’s still very far away”, said the Grasshopper.

You were lazy”, said the Ant. “I’m afraid you will have to go to bed without supper,” and he closed the door.
