Once upon a time there lived a little girl named Snow White. She lived with her aunt and uncle because her
parents were dead.
One day she heard her uncle and aunt talking about leaving Snow White in the castle because they both wanted
to go to America and they didn’t have enough money to take Snow White.
Snow White didn’t want her uncle and aunt to do that so she decided that it would be best if she ran away. The
next morning she ran away into the woods. She was very tired and hungry. Then she saw a little cottage. She
knocked but no one answered so she went inside and fell asleep.

White woke up. She saw the dwarfs.

didn’t have anything except a cow. When the cow had grown too old, his mother sent Jack to the market to
sell it. On the way to the market, Jack met a butcher who had some beautiful beans in his hand. The butcher
told the boy that the beans were of great value and persuaded the silly lad to sell the cow for the beans.
Jack brought them, happily. When he told his mother about this, his mother became so angry that she threw
the beans out of the window. When Jack woke up in the morning, he felt the sun shining into a pan of his
room, but all the rest was quite dark and shady. So he jumped to the window. What did he see? The
beanstalk grew up quite close past Jack’s window. He opened the window and jumped to the beanstalk which
ran up just like a big ladder
He climbed and climbed till at last he reached the sky. While looking around, he saw a very huge castle. He
was very amazed. Then Jack walked along the path leading to the castle. There was a big tail woman on the
doorstep. Jack greeted her and asked for the giantess mercy to give him breakfast, because he fell very
hungry. Although the giantess grumbled at first, finally she gave Jack a hunk of bread and cheese and a jug of
milk.
Jack hadn’t finished when the whole house began to tremble with the noise of someone’s coming. “Oh! It’s
my husband!” cried the giantess. “What on earth shall I do?” Hastily the giantess opened a very big cupboard
and hid Jack there.
