QR code
"The cock, the mouse, and the little red hen: an old tale retold by Lefèvre" is a European fable published in 1907. When a greedy fox threatens three housemates, the lazy cock and mouse carelessly let danger inside. All three are captured and carried away in a sack. Only the hardworking little red hen—always prepared with her sewing kit—can save them. This tale teaches that hard work pays and being prepared for
every eventuality can save lives. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
