In "The Little Red Hen," a hardworking hen discovers some wheat seeds and decides to plant them. As she works diligently to grow and harvest the wheat, she asks her friends—the lazy dog, the disinterested cat, and the indifferent goose—for help. Each time, they refuse to assist her, preferring to lounge around instead. After the hen successfully bakes bread from the wheat, she invites her friends to enjoy the fruits of her labor. However, this time, she decides that since they didn’t help her, they won’t get to share in the delicious bread, teaching them a valuable lesson about responsibility and teamwork.

However, the Little Red Hen refuses to share her bread with the animals who didn’t do any of the work to make it.
