So
the little red hen found a patch of soil. She moved the stones and dug the earth.
She made a row of holes and planted all the grains of wheat.
Then she watered them carefully and left them to grow.
All summer,the sun shone on the grains of wheat and the rain fell on them.
Each day,the little red hen checked that they were not too dry or too wet.
She pulled up the weeds and made sure the wheat had space to grow.
At last,the wheat was strong and tall with fat,golden grains.
"This wheat is ready to harvest," she said to herself.
"That will be a lot of work.
"The little red hen went to see her friends.
"I have worked all summer and the wheat is ready.
Who will help me to harvest it?"she asked.
