A Home for an Ant—Part 1

An ant lived in a hole. The ant said, “This hole is
no good. When it rains, the rain comes in this hole.
And I get wet. When the days are hot, the hole gets
hot. When the hole gets hot, I get hot.” But when the
days got cold, the hole did not get hot. The hole got
cold. And so did that ant.®

The ant said, “This hole gets hot and this hole gets
cold. And when it rains, this hole gets wet. I will leave
this hole.”

So the ant did that.

The ant went up the hill to the home of an eagle.
“Can I stay in this home?” the ant said.©

The eagle did not say a thing. The eagle picked up
the ant and said, “I will take you from this hill. Do not
come back. Go dig a hole and live like other ants.” ©

But the ant did not dig a hole. That ant went to
the home of a ram.© “Can I live in this home?” the ant
said. The ram said, “We do not like ants. Go dig a hole
and live like other ants.”©
