2. Once
there
was
a
li'le
red
hen.
She
lived
with
her
friends
the
dog
Max
and
the
horse
named
Scout.
They
also
lived
with
a
sheep
named
Shawn
and
the
pig
named
Oinkers.
One
day
Li'le
Red
Hen
was
walking
in
the
field,
when
she
stumbled
upon
some
wheat
seeds.
Li'le
Red
Hen
had
an
idea.
”
I
could
plant
these
seeds
and
make
bread!”
she
clucked.
So
she
went
home
and
did
just
that.
3. “Who
will
help
me
plant
this
wheat?”,
asked
Li'le
Red
Hen
“I’m
busy
with
a
bone.”
barked
Max.
“I
am
pracOcing
my
galloping”,
neighed
Scout.
“I
am
grazing”,
baaed
Shawn.
“EaOng”,
snorted
Oinkers
with
a
mouthful
of
slop.
“If
you
want
to
be
lazy
then
I
will
plant
the
seeds”,
mumbled
Li'le
Red
Hen.
4. So
she
did.
She
planted
those
seeds
and
watered
them.
She
watered
the
seeds
for
a
month
unOl
harvest.
“Who
will
help
me
harvest
the
wheat?”
Li'le
Red
Hen
asked.
“I
won’t”,
said
lazy
Max.
“I
won’t”,
said
sleepy
Scout
“I
won’t”,
said
yawning
Shawn.
“Honk-‐shu”,
said
sleeping
Oinkers.
“ Then
I
will!”
announced
Li'le
Red
Hen.
So
she
got
to
work.
By
sundown
she
had
a
beauOful
crop
in
bundles
ready
to
be
taken
to
the
mill.
The
next
morning
Li'le
Red
Hen
got
up
early.
She
asked
Max,
”
Will
you
come
with
me
to
the
mill
to
grind
the
5. wheat.”
Max
explained
,”
I
do
not
have
Ome
for
this
silly
nonsense.
I
have
squirrels
to
chase.”
“
I
have
galloping
to
do,”
admi'ed
Scout.
“
I
have
grazing
to
do
,”
noted
Shawn.
“
I
have
to
be
in
the
cherry
orchard.
There
is
free
cherry
picking!”
oinked
Oinkers.
“Well
if
you
have
other
things
to
do,”
said
Li'le
Red
Hen
hotly.
6. So
she
brought
the
wheat
to
the
mill
to
and
got
it
ground
into
flour.
She
made
it
home
by
the
aUernoon.
“
Who
will
help
me
cook
some
bread?”
“
I
won’t,”
said
Max
“
I
won’t,”
said
Scout
“
I
won’t,”
said
Shawn
And
the
only
sound
of
Oinkers
was
a
faint
oink
in
the
distance.
“Ok,
I
guess
I’ll
do
it
myself,”
sighed
Li'le
Red
Hen.
Soon
the
kitchen
smelled
heavenly.
Max
smelled
the
bread
first
and
sat
by
the
window
smelling
the
delicious
bread.
7. Scout
smelled
the
bread
next
and
stood
by
the
window
with
Max.
Shawn
smelled
the
bread
and
came
to
the
window
with
the
friends.
Oinkers
smelled
the
bread
and
came
running
toward
the
window.
The
bread
was
ready.
Li'le
Red
Hen
brought
the
bread
out.
“
Who
will
help
me
eat
this
bread?”,
asked
Li'le
Red
Hen.
“
I
will!”,
shouted
Max
“
I
will!”,
shouted
Scout
“
I
will!”,
shouted
Shawn
“
I
will!”,
shouted
Oinkers.
8. “
Well,
too
bad!”,
snapped
Li'le
Red
Hen.
“
You
never
helped
me.
So,
too
bad.”
And
she
gobbled
that
bread
up.
