Five Famous Fairy Tales ~BR 2-07~

This time, I read "Five Famous Fairy Tales". This book has five short story. All of them are happy ending, so I really became happy after I read this book. I want to inroduce one of these story.

One is "The Talble, the Donkey, and the Stick". This book was written by Jacob and Wilhelm. they are brother. Their stories are wonderful! There are a women and her sons, named Tom, Bob, and Jack. They are ppor so three sons have to go work. Tom and Bob work hard each place and the master gave them masic tools. Tom got a masic table. When he said the spell, many food appeared. Bob got a masic Donkwy. If he said the spell, many money appeared from the donkey. However, both of them were rodded their tresures. They told their brother about it. Jack also work hard and he got a masic stick. When he said the spell, the stick hit his enemy automatically. Then, he found the robber who stole his brothers' tresure. He attacked the robber, and got three masic tools. He brought thm to his hometown, and live with his family happily.

THis story told me that don't put on airs. Two bigger brothers show off their tool. And then he robbed them. There is a Japanese proverb that "clever hawk hide his nails". In English is "Still water run deep". If you have good skill, or good atemes, don't be haughtly. Besides, of course, this story said you are tied for if you do bad actions. These are natural to live as a human, so it is so important. We shoud not forget about it.
