Abstract

A tired worker ant makes her way home with a huge load of watermelon on her back. She’s tired, hungry, and just wishes she was home already. Then she hears something. A beautiful something. A strange, musical something. She follows the noise and finds a grasshopper and his friends and their band. Their music relieves her worries and then she finds a way to pay them back as well.
