THE THREE LITTLE PIGS

Once upon a time there was a mama pig who had three little pigs. She loved them very much but there was not enough food to feed them, so the little pigs had to go seek their fortune.

The first little pig decided to go South. He met a farmer on the road who was carrying a bundle of straw. The little pig asked politely: "Could you please give me that straw, so that I can build a house?"

Because the little pig said "please", the farmer gave him the straw and the little pig built a beautiful house. The house had walls made of straw, a floor made of straw, and inside... a comfortable bed made of straw.

After building the house, the little pig decided to take a nap in his bed made of straw. Suddenly, the big bad wolf arrived and smelled the pig inside the house, and his mouth started to water. "Mmmmm... bacon sandwiches!"

So the wolf knocked at the door of the house made of straw and said: "Little pig! Little pig! Open the door!"

But the little pig saw the wolf's big paws through the keyhole. The little pig replied: "No! No! No! Not for all the gold in the world!"

The wolf showed his teeth and said: "Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll knock your house down."

So he huffed and he puffed and he knocked down the house, and the little pig ran back to his mother's house.

The second little pig decided to go North. He found a farmer on the road who was carrying a bundle of wood. The little pig asked politely: "Excuse me, could you give me that wood to build a house?"

Because the little pig said "excuse me", the farmer gave him the wood, and the little pig built a beautiful house with it. The house had walls made of wood, a floor made of wood, and inside... a strong table made of wood.

After building the house, the little pig started decorating his table made of wood with flowers. Suddenly, the big bad wolf arrived and smelled the pig inside the house, and his stomach started to rumble. "Mmmmm... roast pork!"

So the wolf knocked at the door of the house made of wood and said: "Little pig! Little pig! Open the door!"

But the little pig saw the wolf's long nose through the keyhole. The little pig replied: "No! No! No! Not for all the gold in the world!"

The wolf showed his teeth and said: "Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll knock your house down."

So he huffed and he puffed and he knocked down the house, and the little pig ran back to his mother's house... Mama pig was not very happy!

The third little pig decided to go West. He found a farmer on the road who was carrying a load of bricks. The little pig asked politely: "Hello sir!, could you give me some of those bricks to build a house?"

Because he called him "sir", the farmer gave the little pig some bricks, and the little pig built a beautiful house with them. The house had walls made of brick, a floor made of brick, and inside... a large fireplace made of brick.

After building the house, the little pig started cooking a big pot of soup in his fireplace made of brick. Suddenly, the big bad wolf arrived and smelled the pig inside the house, and he licked his lips. "Mmmmm... pork chops with barbeque sauce and green beans!"

So the wolf knocked at the door of the house made of brick and said: "Little pig! Little pig! Open the door!"

But the little pig saw the wolf's big ears through the keyhole. The little pig replied: "No! No! No! Not for all the gold in the world!"

Then the wolf showed his teeth and said: "Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll knock your house down."

So he huffed and he puffed. He puffed and he huffed. And he huffed, huffed, and puffed; but he could not knock down the house. At last the wolf was so tired that he couldn't huff any more.

The little pig laughed while stirring his big pot of soup.

But the wolf was so hungry for pork chops... he would not give up! So the wolf climbed onto the roof. "Now I'll get that pig!"

The wolf slid down the great chimney made of brick and... PLOP! ... landed bottom-first into the big pot of soup... which was very hot! The wolf howled and jumped out of the pot, and then ran out of the house clutching his burnt bottom.

The little pig called his mother and his two brothers on his mobile phone made of brick, and invited them for a delicious dinner of wolf-bottom soup.

The wolf-bottom soup was so tasty that soon everybody wanted to catch the wolf and make him sit in their soup. The poor wolf had to run far away to the deep dark forest where he could live in peace and quiet.

The Ugly Duckling

Once upon a time down on an old farm, lived a duck family, and Mother Duck had been sitting on a clutch of new eggs. One nice morning, the eggs hatched and out popped six chirpy ducklings.

But one egg was bigger than the rest, and it didn´t hatch. Mother Duck couldn´t recall laying that seventh egg. How did it get there? TOCK! TOCK! The little prisoner was pecking inside his shell.

-"Did I count the eggs wrongly?"

Mother Duck wondered. But before she had time to think about it, the last egg finally hatched.

A strange looking duckling with gray feathers that should have been yellow gazed at a worried mother. The ducklings grew quickly, but Mother Duck had a secret worry.

- "I can´t understand how this ugly duckling can be one of mine!" she said to herself, shaking her head as she looked at her last born.

Well, the gray duckling certainly wasn´t pretty, and since he ate far more than his brothers, he was outgrowing them. As the days went by, the poor ugly duckling became more and more unhappy. His brothers didn´t want to play with him, he was so clumsy, and all the farmyard folks simply laughed at him.

He felt sad and lonely, while Mother Duck did her best to console him.

- "Poor little ugly duckling!" she would say. "Why are you so different from the others?" 

And the ugly duckling felt worse than ever. He secretly wept at night. He felt nobody wanted him. 

-"Nobody loves me, they all tease me! Why am I different from my brothers?" 

Then one day, at sunrise, he ran away from the farmyard. He stopped at a pond and began to question all the other birds. 

-"Do you know of any ducklings with gray feathers like mine?" 

But everyone shook their heads in scorn.

- "We don´t know anyone as ugly as you."

The ugly duckling did not lose heart, however, and kept on making inquiries.

 He went to another pond, where a pair of large geese gave him the same answer to his question. What´s more, they warned him: 

-"Don´t stay here! Go away! It´s dangerous. There are men with guns around here!" 

The duckling was sorry he had ever left the farmyard. 

Then one day, his travels took him near an old countrywoman´s cottage. Thinking he was a stray goose, she caught him. 

-"I´ll put this in a hutch. I hope it´s a female and lays plenty of eggs!" said the old woman, whose eyesight was poor. 

But the ugly duckling laid not a single egg. The hen kept frightening him. 

-"Just wait! If you don´t lay eggs, the old woman will wring your neck and pop you into the pot!"

And the cat chipped in:

- "Hee! Hee! I hope the woman cooks you, then I can gnaw at your bones!" 

The poor ugly duckling was so scared that he lost his appetite, though the old woman kept stuffing him with food and grumbling: 

-"If you won´t lay eggs, at least hurry up and get plump!" 

-"Oh, dear me!" moaned the now terrified duckling. "I´ll die of fright first! And I did so hope someone would love me!" 

Then one night, finding the hutch door open, he escaped. 

Once again he was all alone. He fled as far away as he could, and at dawn, he found himself in a thick bed of reeds. 

-"If nobody wants me, I´ll hid here forever."

There was plenty a food, and the duckling began to feel a little happier, though he was lonely. 

One day at sunrise, he saw a flight of beautiful birds wing overhead. White, with long slender necks, yellow beaks and large wings, they were migrating south.

- "If only I could look like them, just for a day!" said the duckling, admiringly. 

Winter came and the water in the reed bed froze. The poor duckling left home to seek food in the snow. He dropped exhausted to the ground, but a farmer found him and put him in his big jacket pocket.

- "I´ll take him home to my children. They´ll look after him. Poor thing, he´s frozen!".

The duckling was showered with kindly care at the farmer´s house. In this way, the ugly duckling was able to survive the bitterly cold winter. 

However, by springtime, he had grown so big that the farmer decided:

"I´ll set him free by the pond!" 

That was when the duckling saw himself mirrored in the water.

- "Goodness! How I´ve changed! I hardly recognize myself!" 

The flight of swans winged north again and glided on to the pond.  When the duckling saw them, he realized he was one of their kind, and soon made friends. 

-"We´re swans like you!" they said, warmly. 

-"Where have you been hiding?" 

-"It´s a long story," replied the young swan, still astounded.

Now, he swam majestically with his fellow swans. 

One day, he heard children on the river bank exclaim: "Look at that young swan! He´s the finest of them all!" And he almost burst with happiness.

THE END

Snow White

Once upon a time, a king and a queen had a baby daughter, and when she saw her black hair, snowy white skin and red red lips she decided to call her Snow White. Snow White grew up to be a pretty child, but sadly, after a few years, her mother died and her father married again. The new queen, Snow White's stepmother, was a beautiful woman too, but she was very vain. More than anything else she wanted to be certain that she was the most beautiful woman in the world.

She had a magic mirror, and she used to look at herself in it each clay and say:

-Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest one of all?

And the mirror would always reply,

-You, oh Queen, are the fairest one of all.

The queen would smile when she heard this for she knew the mirror never failed to speak the truth. The years passed. Each year Snow White grew prettier and prettier, until one day, her stepmother looked in the magic mirror and said,

-Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest one of all?

-You, oh Queen, are fair, but Snow White is fairer than you now.

The queen was angry and jealous. In a terrible rage she decided that Snow White should be killed. She called for a hunter and told him to take Snow White far into the forest and to kill her there. In order to prove that Snow White was indeed dead, she commanded him to cut out Snow White´s heart and bring it back to her.

The hunter was very sad, because he loved Snow White very much, but he knew he must obey his orders. He took her deep into the forest and, as he drew his knife, but he couldn't kill her. He told her never to come back to the castle, then he killed a young deer and cut out its heart and took this to the queen, pretending it was Snow White's heart.

Poor Snow White was tired, lonely and hungry in the forest. She wandered through the trees, until she came to a clearing and found a little house. She opened it and went inside. There she saw a room with a long table laid with seven places with food, and she ate a little from each one. Beyond the table were seven little beds. She tried out some of them, and when she found one that was comfortable, she fell into a deep sleep, for she was exhausted by her long journey through the forest.

The cottage was the home of seven dwarfs. All day long they worked in a nearby mine digging diamonds from deep inside the mountain. When they returned home that evening, they were amazed to see that someone had been into their cottage and had taken some food and drink from each place at their table. They were also surprised to find their beds disturbed, until one dwarf called out that he had found a lovely girl asleep on his bed.

The next morning Snow White awoke and met the dwarfs, and she told them her story. When she explained how she now had no home, the dwarfs immediately asked her whether she would like to stay with them.

Back at the palace the queen welcomed the hunter when he returned with the deer´s heart. She was happy that now she was once more the most beautiful woman in the world. As soon as she was alone, she looked n her magic mirror and said, confidently,

-Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest one of all?

To her horror, the mirror replied,

-You, oh Queen, are fair, ´tis true, But Snow White is fairer still than you.

The queen trembled with anger as she realized that the hunter had tricked her. She decided that she would now find Snow White and kill her herself. The queen disguised herself as an old pedlar woman with a basket of apples, and one of them was poisoned.  When she knocked at the cottage door, the queen offered Snow White an apple as a present. Snow White stretched out her hand for the apple and also took a bite. At once Snow White was affected by the poison and fell down as though dead.

That evening when the dwarfs returned they were quite unable to revive her. They watched over her through the night, but when morning came she still lay without any sign of life, and they decided she must be dead. Weeping bitterly, they laid herein a coffin and placed a glass lid over the top so that all could admire her beauty, even though she was dead. Then they carried the coffin to the top of a hill where they took turns to stand guard.

Not long after this a prince came riding through the forest and came to the hill where Snow White lay in her glass-topped coffin. She looked so beautiful that he loved her at once and he asked the dwarfs if he could kiss her. As the prince kissed Snow White gently, he moved her head. The piece of poisoned apple fell from her lips. Slowly she came back to life. Snow White saw the handsome prince kneeling on the ground beside her, and fell in love with him straight away.

Then the queen far away in the palace heard from the mirror,

-You, oh Oueen, are fair, tis true, But Snow White is fairer still than you.

She was furious that Snow White had escaped death once more. And now the king discovered what mischief she had been up to, and banished her from his land. No one ever saw her or her mirror again. As for Snow White, she said farewell to her kind friends the dwarfs, and rode away on the back of the prince's horse. At his castle they were married and they both lived happily forever afterwards.
