Once upon a time, there was a busy ant named Tim. Tim was always working hard, carrying steel to build his ant home. One day, he met a lazy bug named Max. Max did not like to work at all.
"Tim, why don't you quit working so hard?" Max asked. "Come play with me instead!" Tim thought about it, but he knew he had to help his ant friends build the home.
"No, Max," Tim said. "I can't quit. I have to help my friends." Max was sad, but he went away to play by himself.
Later, a big storm came and washed away Max's home. Max had not worked hard like Tim, so his home was not strong. Tim's home, made of steel, was safe and strong. Max learned that being busy and working hard is important.
