The Grasshopper & the Ants por Jerry Pinkney
A lively retelling of the Grasshopper and the Ants, in which the grasshopper plays and the ants work all summer. Come winter, the grasshopper is cold and alone while the ants are prepared, warm, and well-fed. The second part of the story which takes place in winter has very few words, which really allows the grasshopper's experience to hit home. This version ends with the Queen Ant kindly inviting the grasshopper in. Pinkney's illustrations have a wonderful soft texture and vibrancy.
