Transcript The Little Red Hen

The Little Red Hen
One day as the Little
Red Hen was
scratching in a field,
she found a grain of
wheat.
“This wheat should
be planted” she said.
“Who will help me
plant this grain of
wheat?”
“I wont,”
meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,”
clucked the
Little
Red Hen. And
she did.
“Then I
will.”
Soon the
wheat grew to
be tall and
yellow.
“The wheat is
ripe,” clucked
the Little Red
Hen.
“Who will help
me to cut it?”
“I wont,”
meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,”
clucked the
Little
Red Hen. And
she did.
“Then I
will.”
When the wheat
was cut, the
Little Red Hen
said, “Who will
help me to
thresh the
wheat?”
“I wont,”
meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,”
clucked the
Little
Red Hen. And
she did.
“Then I
will.”
When the wheat
was threshed,
the Little Red
Hen said, “Who
will help me take
this wheat to
the mill?”
“I wont,”
meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,”
clucked the
Little
Red Hen. And
she did.
“Then I
will.”
So she took the
wheat to the mill
and it had to be
ground into
flour. Then she
said, “Who will
help make this
flour into
bread?”
“I wont,”
meowed
the cat.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
squeaked
the mouse.
“I wont.”
“I wont,”
baaed the
sheep.
“I wont.”
“Then I will,”
clucked the
Little
Red Hen. And
she did.
“Then I
will.”
She made and
baked the
bread. Then
she said, “Who
will help me to
eat the bread?
“I will!”
meowed
the cat.
“I will!”
“I will!”
squeaked
the mouse.
“I will!”
“I will!”
baaed the
sheep.
“I will!”
“No, No!” said
the Little Red
Hen. “I will do
that.” And she
did!
“I will do
that!”
