A little red hen found a wheat seed. She decided to plant it. She asked a cat, a fox and a pig to help her.

“I can’t help, said the cat.”

“I’m (to) too busy, answered the fox.”

“I’ve got (two) too much to do, replied the pig.”

The little red hen dug a hole. She dropped the seed (in to) into it. She (cover) covered it. The seed (grow) grew into a fine stalk of wheat. The little red hen reaped the wheat. She (grinded) ground it into (flower) flour. She mixed this with water in a bowl and made dough. She put this into a baking dish. She put the dish into the oven. When the loaf was baked she didn’t share the bread with the cat, fox and pig. She and her chick (eat) ate it. They asked her how it tasted. She told them that it was delicious.
