What is The Busy Little Red Hen about?

The busy little red hen finds a handful of wheat and decides to grow it, harvest it and turn it into delicious bread. She asks the other farm animals to help, but the cat, dog and duck are too lazy to join in. Step by step, the hen does all the work herself. When the warm, freshly baked loaf is ready, her unhelpful friends suddenly want a share. Will the hardworking hen reward them, or teach them a lesson?
