The elves and the shoemaker

I read “The elves and the shoemaker”

This is the story about one very honest and earnest shoemaker. He lost everything what he had except the leather enough to make one pair of shoes. He cut it out for all ready to make up the next ready, prayed for heaven, and soon fell asleep. Next morning, he found there were two shoes on his table that made perfectly. This mysterious happening continued for a few days, so he finally decided to watch whole night with his wife; What happened, who it was that came and did it. As soon as it was midnight, there were came in two little naked dwarfs and made the shoes. When they saw that, his wife proposed to the shoemaker to make their cloths and little pair of shoes to tell thanks. They made those things, and gave them on another day. From that day they lived happily as long as they lived.

I thought those dwarfs will appear in front of honest and earnest person only. I want to see them someday

The fairy

I read “The fairy”.This is the story about two sisters and those mother. That mother loved only elder one. One day, younger sister helped poor woman in the forest. She was impressed by girl’s kindness and casted a spell on her. However, when she back home and talked about that magic to her family, older sister began to think how she get that magic too. Then older sister went to the forest. But when poor woman appeared again, older sister didn’t help her. Because of it, she turned to ugly. Older sister and her mother blame younger sister and send her away.By reading this story, I learned how it is important to be kind to everyone even I’ve never seen. I think it’s not easy, but I found that kindness which I gave to someone are surely return to me.

The naughty boy

I read “The naughty boy”.

This is the story of one good old poet and one naughty boy. Long time ago, an old poet had taken child into his warm room. Because he was so pale, and his whole body trembled with cold and rain. An old poet took care of him and gave warm wine. Thanks to those his kindness, that child named Cupid get better. However, Cupid betray his kindness later. 

This is my first time to read this story, but I felt Cupid is unpleasant to read. He returned evil for good. I don’t want to be like him.
