"The Ant and the Grasshopper" qualifies as an Aesop's fable. Aesop's fables are a collection of short moral tales that originated from ancient Greece, typically involving animal characters with human-like qualities. These tales emphasize a moral lesson or teach a practical wisdom.
In "The Ant and the Grasshopper," the story revolves around an ant and a grasshopper, where the ant works hard to collect food for the winter while the grasshopper spends its time singing and dancing. The grasshopper then faces starvation during the winter, which teaches the moral lesson about the importance of hard work, planning, and foresight.
