The first thing we will learn in chapter one of this book is that ants work very hard. All of these guys are my friends and family members. Together, we work hard to maintain our anthill. It takes a lot of hard work to maintain an anthill. 🐜

We have a 👸 queen who runs our colony that lives in our anthill and makes sure we have babies 👶 to take care of. A colony is what you would call all of us together. Our babies have to all be kept at a certain temperature 🌡 or they will die. They also have to be fed 🍼 so they can grow up to become big strong worker ants. 🐜 Some of the babies will become more queens. 👸👸 Depending on the size of our colony, we may need more than one. Sometimes the new queens will go off to start their own colonies. 🐜🐜🐜

The bigger and stronger ants go out to look for food. 🐜 They also protect our colony from preditors who would harm us and destroy our home. 🐜🐜
