This magnificent rendition of a classic Aesop fable by a Caldecott Medal-winning artist teaches children: Dont put off for tomorrow what you can do today!
In this stunning companion to the Caldecott Medal-winning The Lion & the Mouse and the highly acclaimed The Tortoise & the Hare, a playful grasshopper wonders why the busy ants around him wont join in his merrymaking as the seasons pass by. But when winter arrives, he soon sees the value of his friends hard work--just as the ants learn the value of sharing what theyve worked for. Featuring a striking, surprise gatefold page, this third book in Jerry Pinkneys gorgeous trilogy of picture book fables subtly shows the pitfalls of procrastination.
