"The Honest Ant" is a children's story about an ant who learns the importance of honesty and integrity.

One day, an ant was walking through the forest when he came across a delicious-looking piece of honey. The ant was tempted to take the honey for himself, but he knew that it was not his to take.

Instead of taking the honey, the ant decided to be honest and return it to the hive. He scurried back to the hive and told the other ants about the honey he had found.

The other ants were surprised by the ant's honesty, and they decided to investigate the matter for themselves. They followed the ant back to the place where he had found the honey, and sure enough, they found a small hole in the ground where the honey had been left behind.

The ants realized that the honey belonged to someone else, and they decided to return it to its rightful owner. They carried the honey back to the hole in the ground and left it there, hoping that the owner would find it.

The owner of the honey was grateful for the ants' honesty and integrity. He was impressed that the ants had returned the honey to him, even though it had been left behind by accident.

The ants were praised by the other animals in the forest for their honesty and integrity. They learned that being honest and truthful always pays off in the end, and they lived happily ever after.

The moral of the story is that honesty and integrity are important values to live by, and they can bring us respect and gratitude from others. It is always better to be honest and tell the truth, even if it is difficult or uncomfortable.
