1
Once upon a time, right on the edge of the forest,
2
lived a golden haired girl.
3
This golden yellow haired girl's name was Goldilocks.
4
She had such amazing and admirable locks that everyone who saw her was mesmerized.
5
but despite her sweetness, at times she could be a rather naughty little girl.
6
Every time she stepped out to play,
7
her mother would have to warn her to behave.
8
Darling, please stay in the backyard and don't go into the woods.
9
Deep into the forest in a shack lived a bear family.
10
A broad-shouldered papa bear, a medium-sized mama bear and a baby bear.
11
Mama bear always woke up early to prepare oatmeal porridge for breakfast.
12
One morning, baby bear woke up earlier than usual and wanted to eat his porridge.
13
But it was too hot.
14
Mama, can we go out for a walk in the woods until our porridge cools down?
15
Mama, Papa and Baby Bear left their porridges on the table and went out for a walk.
16
The same morning, Goldilocks was playing in the backyard while waiting for her mum to prepare breakfast.
17
But she was so bored of playing in the same yard all the time
18
and she was very curious about the deep parts of the forest.
19
What would happen if I just went for a walk?
20
She looked around, seeing that no one was around,
21
she began running into the forest.
22
When she got tired, she stopped and looked around.
23
What a beautiful forest!
24
Flowers, trees!
25
Why didn't I come here before?
26
She began to walk deeper into the forest.
27
In the meantime, walking around with his family,
28
the baby bear saw a beehive on the branch of a tree.
29
Such a big beehive!
30
I'm sure it is full of honey!
31
Papa, can we eat some honey?
32
No, my boy.
33
That belongs to the bees.
34
It's their home.
35
We can't go in anybody's home and eat their food.
36
It's not right.
37
You're right.
38
I think I will have to wait until we go home for my breakfast.
39
Meanwhile, Goldilocks walked all by herself for such a long time.
40
Finally, she got lost.
41
She tried to turn back but could not make out the right way.
42
She got really tired and hungry.
43
She was almost in tears of her tiredness.
44
She walked a little more and finally she came to the end of the road.
45
and she came across the house of the bear family in between the trees.
46
She quietly approached the house,
47
walked around it, but she could not see anyone.
48
She knocked on the door, but nobody answered.
49
Then she looked through the window.
50
She saw three hot steamy pleats on the table.
51
She went back to the door again And this time she knocked Hard
52
The door opened Goldilocks was overjoyed She looked in and yelled Anybody home?
53
When there was no answer She entered She approached the table On the table there were three bowls of porridge one big,
54
one medium sized and one small.
55
Because she was so hungry,
56
she wanted to eat the big one first.
57
But the moment she put the spoon in her mouth,
58
her mouth burnt because the porridge was still too hot.
59
She immediately reached the medium bowl,
60
but she did not want to eat this either because it was too cold.
61
It's too cold!
62
Finally, she dipped her spoon into the smallest one.
63
Hmm, this porridge is neither cold nor too hot.
64
It's exactly the way I want it.
65
So she ate all the porridge in the smallest bowl.
66
When she was done with her breakfast and felt full,
67
she wanted to sit on one of the three chairs in front of the chimney to rest for a while.
68
One of the three chairs was a big one,
69
the other one medium, and the last one was a small one.
70
First she tried to sit on the big one,
71
but she couldn't even climb on it.
72
She tried the medium one,
73
but this one was very hard.
74
It was very uncomfortable.
75
Finally, she sat down on the smallest one.
76
This one was very comfortable and exactly her size.
77
But suddenly, the chair broke into pieces with a very loud noise.
78
Goldilocks found herself on the floor and she did not know what to do.
79
She walked through to the next door and here there were three beds.
80
A big, a medium sized and a small one.
81
First she tried the big bed.
82
This one was too big for her and also too hard.
83
Second one was a little bigger than her size but also too soft.
84
So she lied down on the third and smallest bed.
85
This one was exactly her size and it was very comfortable.
86
So comfortable that Goldilocks fell asleep right away.
87
Whilst Goldilocks were sleeping, the Bear family came back home.
88
Papa Bear had some wood with him that he collected for the chimney.
89
Mama bear had fresh berries and baby bear just could not wait to have his porridge.
90
When they arrived home, they went straight to the table.
91
Papa bear had a look at his bowl and was so angry.
92
Somebody tasted my porridge.
93
Mama bear also looked at her bowl.
94
Somebody also tasted my porridge.
95
And when Baby Bear looked at his bowl, he began to cry.
96
That somebody also tasted my oatmeal porridge.
97
Not only tasted it, also ate it all.
98
They got up and started to look around.
99
Papa Bear noticed his chair in front of the chimney.
100
sit on my chair.
101
Look, it's on a different spot.
102
And then it was Mama Bear's turn to complain.
103
Somebody also sat on my chair.
104
And just like before, the baby bear began to cry again.
105
Somebody also sat on my chair, but Broker too.
106
The bear family curiously went to the bedroom.
107
Somebody lied on my bed.
108
Look how it's undone.
109
Somebody lied on mine too.
110
Somebody lied on my bed too.
111
Nanny's still sleeping in it.
112
Papa Bear walked next to Baby Bear's bed and saw that someone really was sleeping in his bed.
113
Slowly lifted up the blankets and they were really surprised to see a little girl sleeping in the bed.
114
What is a little girl doing in our house?
115
Tell this little girl to get out of my bed now!
116
Waking up to baby bears crying,
117
Goldilocks saw three bears in front of her and she ran out of the room in great fear.
118
She went out of the house and started running without looking back.
119
She got breathless from running,
120
but she did not stop.
121
And she didn't even know which way to go.
122
Right at that moment she saw her parents coming across from the forest.
123
When she didn't end up going back home,
124
they went out looking for her.
125
Goldilocks was very happy to see her parents.
126
She ran and hugged her mother.
127
Oh, Mummy!
128
We were so worried.
129
Are you okay?
130
From now on I will always listen to you.
131
I will never leave without letting you know.
132
Goldilocks hugged her parents really tight.
133
From that day on, as she promised,
134
she always listened to her parents and did nothing without having their permission.
135
She was a well-behaved and kind girl forever.
136
Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful princess in a big castle.
137
One day, her father the king gave her a golden ball as a birthday present.
138
Happy birthday, my daughter.
139
Thank you, father.
140
The princess loved this golden ball.
141
She started to spend all her time playing with it in the garden.
142
One day, she went out with her ball and started to play with it, tossing it around.
143
The princess came next to a little pond and kept on playing with the ball.
144
Right at that moment, she could not catch the ball after she tossed it in the air
145
and the ball started to roll away.
146
My ball!
147
The princess ran after her golden ball,
148
but the ball got faster and faster.
149
Finally, the ball fell in the pond and sank into the deep waters.
150
Oh no!
151
The princess sat down next to the pond and desperately started to cry.
152
My beautiful golden ball!
153
How am I going to bring it back?
154
Suddenly, she heard a voice.
155
Ribbit!
156
My beautiful princess, why are you crying?
157
Ribbit!
158
She looked around but could not figure out where the voice was coming from.
159
When she looked closely, she realised that the voice was coming from the frog that was right next to the pond,
160
looking at her.
161
The frog leaped towards the princess and asked again after he got closer.
162
What's wrong my beautiful princess?
163
Why are you crying?
164
The princess got stunned when she saw a talking frog.
165
A talking frog?
166
How can that be?
167
Well, here I am, talking beautiful princess.
168
Now tell me, why are you crying?
169
Coming back to herself, the princess started to tell her story.
170
The golden ball that my father gave me fell in the pond.
171
It's already at the bottom.
172
How am I going to get it back?
173
The frog came next to her feet and made an offer.
174
My beautiful princess, I will bring back your ball,
175
but in return I will need you to do me a favour.
176
The princess was curious.
177
Hmm, so what's the favour?
178
If you accept to be friends with me,
179
I would like to live with you in the castle.
180
The princess thought about it and then accepted his offer.
181
So the frog jumped in the water and went out of sight.
182
A while later, he appeared with the golden ball and threw it to the princess.
183
Reunited with her ball, the princess happily started to walk back to the castle.
184
Seeing the princess leaving the frog behind,
185
the frog yelled after her.
186
My beautiful princess, you forgot me.
187
You promised to take me with you to the castle.
188
The princess yelled out from afar laughing.
189
How can an ugly frog like you even imagine to live with a beautiful princess like me?
190
The princess left the frog right there and went back to her castle.
191
In the evening, the king,
192
queen and the princess sat down at the dinner table.
193
Right when they were starting to eat,
194
they heard a knock on the door.
195
The mage told them that a frog had arrived and told them
196
that he was invited by the princess and asked permission to come in.
197
The king, surprised, asked his daughter.
198
Would you like to tell us what's going on, my daughter?
199
Well, Daddy.
200
The princess told all about what happened that morning at the pond.
201
If you gave a promise to the frog to save your ball,
202
then you must keep your word for it.
203
The king ordered the maid to welcome the frog inside.
204
A while later, the door opened and the little frog came in leaping and stopped next to the dinner table.
205
Good evening, everyone, and thank you,
206
my king, for allowing me in.
207
With one big jump, the frog landed next to the princess's plate.
208
He looked at her unhappy.
209
The king ordered a plate for the frog,
210
but the frog stopped it.
211
No need for a plate.
212
I can eat from the princess's plate.
213
The frog started to eat from her plate.
214
The princess was really upset with him,
215
but she thought that he would leave after the dinner anyway,
216
and he didn't say anything.
217
But the frog had no intentions to leave after the dinner.
218
When she left the table,
219
he followed the princess to her room.
220
Time passed and the frog got sleepy.
221
My princess, I'm really sleepy.
222
I'd like to sleep in your bed if you don't mind.
223
Afraid to upset her father,
224
the princess had to say yes to that too.
225
The frog jumped on her bed and put his head on her soft pillow.
226
Trying not to show her anger,
227
the princess laid next to the frog and slept.
228
In the morning, the frog woke the princess up.
229
Good morning, my beautiful princess.
230
I have one more wish from you.
231
If you do that, I will leave right away.
232
Hearing that the ugly frog would leave soon,
233
without making it obvious, the princess was extremely happy.
234
All right, shoot, what is it now?
235
I want you to kiss me, my princess.
236
The princess jumped out of her bed furiously.
237
How dare you?
238
That is impossible.
239
The smile on the frog's face disappeared and instead a teardrop ran down his cheek.
240
The princess thought for a while.
241
Oh well, what's the big deal with one tiny kiss?
242
Evidently, I won't see him ever again.
243
And so she gave him a kiss.
244
As soon as she kissed the frog,
245
a bright white light covered the room.
246
Due to the light, the princess couldn't see anything.
247
After a short while, the light disappeared.
248
The princess started to see again,
249
but this time she could not believe her eyes.
250
Right where the frog was standing a moment ago,
251
there was a very handsome man instead.
252
The princess was stunned with what she was seeing.
253
She couldn't believe her eyes,
254
and so she asked, Who are you?
255
What happened to the frog standing here?
256
My beautiful princess, I am the prince of a land far away.
257
The evil witch cast a spell on me and turned me into a frog.
258
To break the spell, I had to spend one night next to a princess and get a kiss from her.
259
Thanks to you, I am saved from being a frog forever.
260
The princess was very surprised but also very happy with what she heard.
261
They both went next to the king and told him all about it.
262
This should be the second lesson the frog has taught you, my dear daughter.
263
We should not evaluate anyone by only their looks and judge without knowing the whole truth about them.
264
The king hosted the prince for a few more days in his castle.
265
The prince and the princess came next to the pond where they first met.
266
My princess, will you marry me and come with me to my kingdom?
267
The princess smiled and nodded, accepting the prince's offer.
268
And right at that moment,
269
a sound broke the silence.
270
Ribbit, ribbit.
271
They turned and looked where the sound came from.
272
there was a frog next to the pond looking at them.
273
They held their breath and waited for him to talk.
274
But it didn't happen.
275
They both started laughing.
276
Don't worry, little froggy.
277
I'm sure you two will find your princess one day.
278
And laughed a little more.
279
After a short while, they got married and lived happily ever after.
