Once upon a time, a long
time ago, there was a king and a princess. The princess was so very beautiful.
She has a crown on her head. It was a shiny crown. The king was kind. The king
had a shiny crown too. They lived in a big, big castle. It was dark, scary and
spooky.
The king and princess
could not sleep because it was a stormy night. Someone started to knock at the
door. It was the prince. The prince was sad, cold, lonely and wet because it
was raining and he had no crown. H was very handsome. The prince needed someone
to stay for the night. The king didn’t believe that the prince was a prince.
The king let the prince stay for the night but he put 100 mattresses on top of
each other for him to sleep on.
When the prince was ready
to go to sleep he went to get a drink of water then the king secretly put a
coin under the bottom mattress. The prince went back to bed but the prince
couldn’t sleep. There was something under the mattresses.
In the morning the prince
said, “King, what is this coin under the mattress?” The king smiled then and
said, “You are a prince.” The king
knew the prince was a prince. The king let the prince marry the princess. When
they got married she was as beautiful as the sun. The prince and the princess
lived happily ever after.
