The country mouse and the town mouse were good friens. One day,
the country mouse called the town mouse, "If you have time, come and
visit me in my country". "That sounds great!!! I'll come tomorrow"
replied the town mouse.
The next day, the town mouse
arrived at the country mouse's home. The country mouse lived under a
tree. 'Welcome to my home" said the country mouse. "It's very plain. My
house is much bigger and nicer" said the town mouse
"If
I were rich, I could live in the town too. Anyway, let's eat. Do you
like seeds and corn?" asked the country mouse. "Not really, I dont eat
this food anymore. In the town, I eat like a king every day"
"I
wish I coulkd eat delicious food everyday" said the country mouse. "If
you want, you can live with me" said the town mouse. 'Really??Can I go
with you return to the town?" asked the country mouse. "Sure"

THE TWELVE DANCING PRINCESS
Then the king made it known to all the land, that if any person could discover the secret, and find out where it was that the princesses danced in the night, he should have the one he liked best for his wife, and should be king after his death; but whoever tried and did not succeed, after three days and nights, should be put to death.
A king’s son soon came. He was well entertained, and in the evening was taken to the chamber next to the one where the princesses lay in their twelve beds. There he was to sit and watch where they went to dance; and, in order that nothing might pass without his hearing it, the door of his chamber was left open. But the king’s son soon fell asleep; and when he awoke in the morning he found that the princesses had all been dancing, for the soles of their shoes were full of holes. The same thing happened the second and third night: so the king ordered his head to be cut off. After him came several others; but they had all the same luck, and all lost their lives in the same manner.
