    Busy Ants

    Author: Kanchan Bannerjee


    Illustrator: Deepa Balsavar
    Hello, I am the fourth one in the line. Can you see me?
    Left, right, left, right. We walk silently in a line.
    I just got an idea. I am going to get a set of WHEELS to move
    faster!
    We are not noisy like other animals. Ours is a language of
    smells.
    One kind of smell says, “Follow me this way for a feast.”
    Another smell says, “Danger! Do not go there.”
    I love cakes and all kinds of sweets, just like you.
    Want to see my muscles at work? I may look very tiny to you,
    but I am very strong.
    Never mind if the door is shut. I can slip through the
    smallest crack.
    Believe it or not, hundreds of us live happily in a colony.
    LET US LEARN SOME NEW WORDS.

    Small - Big
    Slow - Fast
    Short - Tall
    Thin - Fat
    Hard - Soft
    Noisy - Quiet
    Here are some words with their opposites. Can you make a
    sentence for each pair of opposite words?
    For example, ‘An ant is small; an elephant is big’.
    “As busy as an ant” is a nice way to describe someone who is
    very hard working.
