Bookroo's summary
In a vibrant retelling set in the Imperial Chinese Emperor's Summer Palace, industrious ants work tirelessly to prepare for winter. Meanwhile, a carefree grasshopper ignores the looming cold. As the seasons change, will the grasshopper's carefree days lead to regret, or will the ants' diligence pay off? Discover the clash of foresight and folly in this timeless tale.
From the publisher
Blending Eastern and Western traditions, the author brings new meaning to the favorite tale about a colony of industrious ants which busily prepares for the approaching winter while a grasshopper makes no plans for the cold weather to come.
