At the assembly, we listened to a story called "Hey Little Ant".
"Hey, Little Ant is a song-based children’s picture book used throughout the world to teach young children alternatives to violent and bullying behavior and to emphasize the worth of all living things. The story of Hey, Little Ant is a negotiation between an ant about to be flattened and a child (the “Kid”) about to flatten it. The story was written as a song in 1992 by Phillip Hoose and his then nine-year-old daughter Hannah.The Hooses deliberately left the outcome of Hey, Little Ant unresolved, ending the story with the question, “Now what do you think that Kid should do?” (www.heylittleant.com)
