Lady White And Lady Yellow

          Once, there were two chrysanthemums growing side by side in a field, one white and yellow. One day, a gardener came and offered to take the yellow flower to his home and make her far more beautiful. The yellow flower jumped at his chance and waved to her sister as she was carried away in the gentle hands of the gardener. Day by day the yellow flower petals grew long and soft and she looked perfect.

          One day, a man came saying he was looking for a flower to put on the lord’s crest. The gardener showed the man his best flower, the yellow flower was disappointed but tried not to dwell on it.

          Then, the man crossed the field of the white chrysanthemums. He came to her and said, “How would you like to be the object of my lord’s crest. We would make sure you have a very nice life”. Soon, she was planted in a small planter by herself on a windowsill in the lord’s mansion. The lord and his family agreed it was prefect for their crest.

          As for the yellow chrysanthemums, her luxury was short-lived. One day, she felt a terrible feeling coming through her leaves and then she fell over and lay on the ground. Meanwhile the white flower was carefully conserved. The gardener were careful not to disrupt her simple beauty for he knew that the family had chosen her instead of the fancy yellow one, which was now dead in the gardener’s garden.

Snow White

            A long time ago, a child was born to a queen and king and she was called Snow White. When the queen died, the queen was married again. This new queen was wicked and hated Snow White. The queen gave orders that Snow White must be treated as a servant.

          Snow White grew up very beautiful, and one day a prince riding by saw her at work and fell in love with her.

          The queen was beautiful too, and every day she asked her magic mirror, “Who is the fairest in the land?” and the mirror answered, “You are the fairest one of all”.

          One day, the mirror answered Snow White was the fairest in the land, and in a rage the queen gave orders to one of her huntsman to take Snow White into the woods and kill her.

          The huntsmen had a kind heart and couldn’t do the dead, so he told Snow White to run away. She fled into the woods where seven little dwarfs lived in a small and strange house.
