Once upon a tale...............
The Very Clever Girl
The very clever girl
Once upon a time in a beautiful part of Greece there lived a king with his wife, the queen, and his son, a handsome prince. The prince loved riding his horse in the forest.
Near the palace there lived a beautiful but poor young girl. Her father was a tailor.
Poor girls did not go to school. They stayed at home. They looked after the house and the garden.
One day the prince was riding his horse, as usual, by her house. He saw her and was impressed by her beauty. He asked her:
“Beautiful girl, how many leaves does basil have?”
The girl immediately answered back:
” My dear prince, how many stars does the sky have?”
The prince understood that she was not only beautiful but clever as well!
They got married and they lived happily ever after!!!!!
