- Abstract
- en_US This version of GA has several surprising twists. The ant finds the grasshopper out in the cold. When he asks for grain, the ant asks him where his grain is. I was singing so much that I didn't find any. The ant's answer is You can have some grain, but next year you must find your own. The story is followed by two simple puzzles. Tadpoles are structured to provide support for newly independent readers, as the final page puts it. One such support is large print. One weakness in this presentation is that only one page illustrates a single ant, but after the first introduction of ants, the text uses only the singular. A child might well ask which of the ants is doing the talking.
