Draw Me a Story. The Clever Girl.
Rating
0.0 stars

(Fabric & Pen)
Once upon a time, many years ago, there was a rich man who had a wagon and a poor man who had a mare. One night, when the two men were lodged at the same inn, the poor man's mare gave birth to a colt. When the rich man saw what had happened, he grinned and told the poor man that his wagon had given birth to a colt. But certainly the mare was the mother of this colt, besides, it was impossible for a wagon to give birth to a horse. And this ridiculous argument was the start of a story that all the people in the land still remember with admiration--the story of The Clever Girl.

Draw Me a Story. The Magic Tree.
Rating
0.0 stars

(Paint on Parchment)
Ever since the dawn of time, some places have been luckier than others, I don't know why. Our story happens in a far-off barren land scorched by the sun, even though it is between two great rivers, one to the East and one to the West. These rivers were dangerous places for the people and their herds because of the many wild beasts that went down to the water's edge to quench their thirst Standing under the shade of a huge tree, the only tree to be found in that vast plain, an abandoned young boy realized he was all alone in the world. His only company being his two goats. He could think of nothing to do but wail, ?How will I get by all alone? I'm only a child. What can I do now??
