Ant Day – Picture Storybook

One day pale ants sailed far across the sea in a coconut. They found themselves on a beautiful island. More pale ants came. They built houses. They spread themselves across the land. But there were other ants, dark ones, who had lived on the island for thousands of years. Would the ants find a way to live together?
