    In the heart of the city, a young boy was returning home from school, when he noticed a grasshopper on a leaf in the park.

    The boy stopped in his tracks and went closer to the leaf. 'Hello, Mr. Grasshopper!', he said. The grasshopper replied, 'Well, hello there, young man!'.

    The boy started visiting the park every day after school to chat with the grasshopper. They spoke about everything under the sun.

    One day, the boy asked the grasshopper, 'Are you preparing for the winter?'. The grasshopper simply replied, 'No, I'm enjoying the sun now.'

    Winter came, and the boy noticed the grasshopper shivering on the leaf. 'Why didn't you prepare?', he asked. The grasshopper replied, 'I was too busy enjoying the summer.'

    The boy, feeling sorry for the grasshopper, decided to take it home with him. He made a small box with holes and put the grasshopper in it.

    The boy took care of the grasshopper throughout the winter. He fed it and made sure it was warm.

    The grasshopper, grateful for the boy's help, promised to prepare for the next winter. The boy was happy to hear this.

    When spring arrived, the boy released the grasshopper back into the park. 'Remember your promise', he reminded the grasshopper.

    The grasshopper nodded and hopped away. The boy watched it disappear among the flowers, hoping it had learned its lesson.

    As winter approached, the boy found the grasshopper again, this time, prepared with a small burrow filled with food. The boy smiled, proud of his friend.

    From then on, every summer, they would talk and laugh, and every winter, the grasshopper was ready, having learned the value of hard work and preparation.
