The ugly duckling
Once upon a time there was a little mother duck.
She was excited. Her five eggs were finally going to hatch.
She watched and counted as one by one the eggs hatched.
"One duckling, two ducklings, three, four, five ducklings", she said happily.
Suddenly she noticed that there was one more egg.
It was bigger and whiter than the rest.
"This cannot be my egg", she thought.
Slowly the big egg began to crack and the strange looking duckling came up.
Mother duck was surprised. The younger duckling was great and bigger than the rest.
"How ugly the little one is", she thought.
As the day went by, the ducklings began to grow, but the younger duckling looked different from the rest.
Everybody looked at him and said, "There goes the ugly duckling".
His brothers, sisters teased him all the time.
The ugly duckling felt very bad.
Whenever people laughed at him, he used to run away and hide behind the reeds near the lake.
"Nobody loves me", he thought.

One day, the duckling decided to run away from home.
He swam and swam, and on his way he had many adventures.

The Elves and the Shoemaker
Once upon a time in a village far away, there was a shoemaker and his wife.
The shoemaker worked very hard but there was never enough money.
At last, one night, they had no food for their supper.
"All I have is enough leather to make one pair of shoes," he said to his wife.
He cut out the leather and placed it on the table.
"I will make them in the morning," he said.
And they went to bed hungry.
In the morning, to his surprise, the leather had been made into a beautiful pair of shoes.
Just then, a customer came in.
"I have never seen such beautiful shoes!" she said.
She gave the shoemaker three gold coins for them.
With the money, the shoemaker’s wife bought food and made a delicious dinner.
The shoemaker bought more leather.
That night, he cut the leather for two pairs of shoes.
In the morning, there were two pairs of shoes on the table!
Soon, two customers came in and bought the shoes.
They each paid him well.
So the shoemaker bought leather enough for three pairs more.
He cut out the work again that night, and found it finished in the morning.
And so it went on for some time.
Whatever he got ready at night was always done by the morning, and the good man soon was rich.
One evening, at Christmas time, he said to his wife, "Tonight let’s sit up and watch, to see who it is that comes and does my work for me."
So they hid themselves behind the curtain to see what would happen.
As soon as the clock struck midnight, in came two little elves.
They sat on the shoemaker’s bench and went to work.
They stitched and rapped and hammered tapped at such a rate that the shoemaker was amazed, and could not take his eyes off them for a moment.
On they went until the job was done, and the shoes stood ready on the table.
Then they ran away as quick as lightning.
The next day the shoemaker said, "The elves have helped us. How can we help them?"
"I have an idea," said his wife.
"It's so cold outside, and they have no coats to wear. I will make each of them a coat and a hat.
And you can make each of them a little pair of shoes."
And so they did.
That night they put two little hats and two little coats and two little pair of shoes on the table.
Then they went and hid behind the curtain to watch what the elves would do.
As the clock struck midnight, the elves came in and were going to sit down at their work as usual.
But when they saw the clothes lying there for them, they laugh!
They dressed themselves in the twinkling of an eye, and danced and skipped and sprang about as merry as could be.
