The Little Red Hen by Jerry Pinkney
In this retelling of a classic fable, a diligent little red hen discovers grains of wheat and decides to plant them, seeking help from her barnyard friends—a dog, a cat, and a mouse—at each stage of the process. Despite her repeated requests, her friends consistently refuse to assist with planting, harvesting, milling, and baking. When the bread is finally ready, the hen's companions eagerly want to partake in eating it, but she decides to enjoy the fruits of her labor alone, teaching a valuable lesson about the importance of hard work and cooperation.
