In this classic Aesop's fable, the Cicada is an excellent singer, while the Ant works daily gathering food. Summer ends with the rains, autumn arrives, and winter brings the cold. The Cicada, having saved nothing, asks the Ant for help. What will her reaction be? This adaptation, now in English, brings surprises, enriched by the illustrator's watercolor style.
CROSS-CUTTING THEMES: Ethics, Work and Solidarity.
