Cinderella (Cinderella, 2 Evil Stepsisters, Stepmother, Fairy Godmother) (5)

There once was a widower who remarried. His second wife was ill-natured, and she
had two daughters who were just as unpleasant as their mother. The man had a
beautiful, gentle daughter of his own, and she was soon to become the servant of
her evil step-mother and step-sisters. They made her do all the chores around the
house, and she was named Cinderella, after the cinders she swept out of the
fireplace.
The King needed to find a queen for his prince, so he threw a huge ball. The evil
step-mother and step-sisters were invited, but Cinderella was not allowed to go.
After they left, Cinderellas fairy godmother appeared and changed her dirty rags
into a beautiful gown with glass slippers. Next the fairy godmother changed a
pumpkin into a coach and some mice into footmen. Before Cinderella left, the fairy
godmother warned her to be home before midnight, because the spell would only
last till then.
Cinderella was a hit at the ball. The prince fell in love with her and asked her name.
Just then the clock struck midnight, and Cinderella ran away. She was in such a
hurry, that she lost one of her glass slippers. It was the only clue the prince had to
find his true love. He went to every home in the kingdom and had every single
young girl try on the slipper to see if it fit. The evil step-sisters couldnt fit the
slipper, but Cinderella did. The prince married her and they all lived happily ever
after.
Goldilocks and the Three Bears (Goldilocks, 3 Bears) (4)
There once was a family of bears: mama bear, papa bear, and baby bear. They were
just about to eat their lunch, but their porridge was too hot, so they went for a walk
in the woods. Just then a little girl named Goldilocks came upon their house and
went inside. She saw the three bowls of porridge on the table and tasted some from
each bowl. The big bowl was too hot, the medium-sized bowl was too cold, but the
smallest bowl was just right, so she ate it all up.
The she saw three chairs and decided to sit down. The big chair was too hard, the
medium-sized chair was too soft, but the little chair was just right. As Goldilocks was
getting comfortable in the smallest chair, it broke. So, she went in the next room
and found the beds. The big bed was too hard, the medium-sized bed was too soft,
but the little bed was just right, and Goldilocks fell last asleep.
Just then, the three bears came home to find their house in a mess. Papa bear said,
Someone has been eating my porridge. Mama bear said the same thing, and baby
bear said, Someone has been eating my porridge, and they ate it all up! Then
they saw the chairs and papa bear said, Someone has been sitting in my chair.
Mama bear said the same thing, and then baby bear said, Someone has been
sitting in my chair, and they broke it!

Then they went into the next room and found Goldilocks asleep in baby bears bed.
When she awoke, she was so frightened she ran out of the bears house and didnt
stop running till she got home.

Jack and the Beanstalk (Jack, Mother, Giant, Giants Wife/Cow) (4)
Jack and his mother were hungry. The cow in the barn gave them milk, but they
needed food. Jacks mother said, We must sell the cow to get some food. Jack
volunteered to take the cow to town. Along the way, Jack met a farmer who talked
him into giving up the cow in exchange for a handful of good luck beans.
When Jack returned home, his mother was very cross because they lost their cow
for a few beans. She threw the beans out the window and went to bed. The beans
began to grow straight up into the sky, so Jack climbed the beanstalk hoping to find
good luck at the top.
Instead, he found himself in a giants castle. The giant was counting his money and
singing Fee fie foe fum, I like children in my tum. The giants wife helped Jack hide
so the giant wouldnt eat him. Then Jack realized something and said, Hey, this
giant stole my fathers money! The giants wife said, This magic hen and golden
harp used to belong to your father too. Play the harp, and then run!
Jack played the harp, and the giant fell asleep. Jack grabbed the money and the hen
and started running. But on the way outside, he knocked over the harp and woke
the giant up. The giant chased Jack all the way down the beanstalk chanting fee fie
foe fum! When Jack reached the bottom, he chopped down the beanstalk with an
ax. The giant was no more. Then the magic hen clucked and laid a golden egg.
Jacks mother, awakened by all the noise, took the golden egg, put it with the
money, and said, Now well have something nice to eat.
Three Little Pigs (3 Pigs, Wolf) (4)
Once upon a time there were three little pigs. One pig built a house of straw while
the second pig built his house with sticks. They built their houses very quickly and
then sang and danced all day because they were lazy. The third little pig worked
hard all day and built his house with bricks.
A big bad wolf saw the two little pigs while they danced and played and thought,
What juicy tender meals they will make! He chased the two pigs and they ran and
hid in their houses. The big bad wolf went to the first house and huffed and puffed
and blew the house down in minutes. The frightened little pig ran to the second
pigs house that was made of sticks. The big bad wolf now came to this house and

huffed and puffed and blew the house down in hardly any time. Now, the two little
pigs were terrified and ran to the third pigs house that was made of bricks.
The big bad wolf tried to huff and puff and blow the house down, but he could not.
He kept trying for hours but the house was very strong and the little pigs were safe
inside. He tried to enter through the chimney but the third little pig boiled a big pot
of water and kept it below the chimney. The wolf fell into it and died.
The two little pigs now felt sorry for having been so lazy. They too built their houses
with bricks and lived happily ever after.

The Princess and the Pea (Princess, Mother, Prince, the Pea/Servants) (4)
A prince who was searching for the perfect wife wanted to marry a beautiful
princess of good upbringing. One night, there was a storm. There was a knock on
the door and the queen found a girl standing outside. She was wet and shivering.
She said, I am a princess but I got caught in this storm. Please may I stay here
tonight? The queen wanted to test if she really was a princess or not. So, while the
servants made the bed, the queen placed a tiny pea on it and added many layers of
mattresses and quilts on top. The princess slept on this bed.
The next day, the queen asked if she had slept well. She replied, The bed was soft,
but I could not sleep. I dont know what there was on it but my back has turned all
blue! Seeing how delicate she was, the queen realised that she was indeed a real
princess of delicate upbringing. The prince was very pleased and married the
princess and they lived happily ever after.
