One sunny day, a tiny ant named Mimi walked along a garden path.
Step… step… step…
She sniffed the air.
“Sniff… sniff… what is that?”
A sweet smell!
Mimi followed it.
Step… step… step…
“Oh!” she said.
A big piece of cookie!
Soft… fluffy… and full of crumbs.
“Wow!” said Mimi.
“A sweet surprise!”
She pushed it with her head.
Push… push…
It did not move.
She tried to lift it.
Lift… lift…
Too heavy!
“Oh no…” said Mimi.
Just then, her friend Tutu came by.
“What did you find?” he asked.
“Cookie!” Mimi said.
“But I can’t take it home.”
Tutu smiled.
“Let’s try together!”
They both pushed.
Push… push…
The cookie moved a tiny bit.
“Oh!” they laughed.
“It moved!”
Soon, more ants came.
“What’s happening?” they asked.
“Sweet cookie!” said Mimi.
“Help us!”
Now many ants gathered to help lifting the cookie.
“Ready?” they said.
“One… two… three!”
Lift… lift…lift!
And together they lifted it carefully.
They placed their tiny legs under the cookie and lifted it high.
Together, they carried the cookie down the path.
Up a tiny stone…
around a twig…
through a narrow path…
Slowly… slowly…
The cookie moved forward.
The cookie was heavy, but the ants were strong.
“Together!” they cheered.
Lift… lift… lift…
At last, they reached their home.
“We did it!” they shouted happily.
Mimi smiled wide.
“I couldn’t do it alone,” she said.
“But together… we did something big!”
Now they sat in a circle.
Nibble… nibble… nibble…
“Yummy!” they laughed.
Tiny ants… big smiles.
Moral: When we work together, even big tasks become easy and fun.
