The Little Red

Hen
Once upon a
time, there was
a little red
hen who
lived on a
farm . She
was friends
with a lazy
dog ,a
sleepy cat ,
and a noisy
yellow

duck .
One day the
little red
hen
seeds on
the ground. The
little red

hen had
an idea. She
would plant the
seeds
The little red
hen asked
her friends,
"Who will help
me plant the
seeds ?"
"Not I," barked
the lazy
dog .
"Not I," purred
the sleepy

cat .
"Not I,"
quacked the
noisy yellow
duck .
"Then I will,"
said the little

red hen
.So the little red
hen
planted the

seeds
all by herself.
When the
seeds
had grown, the
little red

hen
asked her
friends, "Who
will help me cut

the wheat
?"
"Not I," barked
the lazy

dog .
"Not I," purred
the sleepy

cat .
"Not I,"
quacked the
noisy yellow

duck .
"Then I will,"
said the little

red hen .
So the little red

hen cut
the wheat
all by herself.
When all the

wheat
was cut, the
little red

hen asked
her friends,
"Who will help
me take the

wheat to
the mill to
be ground into

flour ?"
"Not I," barked
the lazy

dog .
"Not I," purred
the sleepy

cat .
"Not I,"
quacked the
noisy yellow

duck .
"Then I will,"
said the little
red hen . So
the little red
hen
brought the

wheat to the
mill all by
herself, ground

the wheat

into flour ,
and carried the
heavy sack

of flour
back to the

farm .
The tired little
red hen
asked her
friends, "Who
will help me
bake the
bread ?"
"Not I," barked
the lazy
dog .
"Not I," purred
the sleepy

cat .
"Not I,"
quacked the
noisy yellow
duck .
"Then I will,"
said the little
red hen .
So the little red
hen

baked
the bread
all by herself.
When the
bread
was finished,
the tired little
red hen
asked her
friends, "Who
will help me
eat the

bread ?"
"I will," barked
the lazy
dog .
"I will," purred
the sleepy
cat .
"I will,"
quacked the
noisy yellow
duck .
"No!" said the
little red
hen . "I
will." And the
little red

hen

ate the
bread all
by herself.
