Addis Ababa Fairy Tales and Bedtime Stories for Kids Rapunzel Once upon a time,
2
in a land far away,
3
lived a very sad witch.
4
The reason for her sadness was that she would never have a child.
5
However, if she had a child,
6
she would be able to pass on her deep secrets and powers to her.
7
And so she made up her mind she would take away the first baby girl
8
that was ever to be born and raise her as if it were hers, away from everything.
9
The magic of evil shall forever take over the world!
10
Not so far from where the witch lived,
11
lived a couple who made a living by farming.
12
One day, the man was surprised with the amazing news.
13
The lady gave the good news to her husband.
14
We're having a baby!
15
Unfortunately, their happiness didn't last very long.
16
The young lady got very ill.
17
As the days went on by, she began losing weight.
18
If she didn't get well soon,
19
she was going to lose the baby.
20
Her husband tried every medicine and beneficial herb that there was,
21
but couldn't cure her.
22
The last doctor he went to told him that there was only one way that his wife would get well.
23
There is an evil-hearted witch.
24
She's the only one that has this healing herb.
25
She's your only help.
26
The man gathered all his courage and went over to the witch's castle and knocked on the door.
27
Fearlessly knocking on my door?
28
You must have an important matter.
29
My wife is ill and she's getting worse.
30
I've heard you have the best remedy for such situations as ours.
31
Really?
32
And why should I help you?
33
I beg you, please don't reject me.
34
My wife is pregnant.
35
If I don't heal her,
36
I will lose them both.
37
After hearing his situation, the witch changed her mind and decided to help him.
38
If you say so, I'll help you.
39
The witch gave him the healing herb.
40
Give a piece of this herb's leaves to your wife every day.
41
You will see that she will heal.
42
The young man was very happy now.
43
He ran back home.
44
His wife ate a piece of the leaves every day.
45
She began to heal and gain the weight she had lost.
46
But the herb the witch had given finished a few days later.
47
The young lady's illness began all over again.
48
This time round, it got worse in a shorter period of time.
49
Having no choice, her husband knocked on the witch's door once again.
50
The witch knew that he would be back.
51
She took out a bag of seeds.
52
These are the seeds that healed your wife.
53
You should get these seeds and plant them in your garden,
54
and you will be able to save your wife and child. But...
55
I have one condition.
56
If you have a baby girl,
57
you will give her to me.
58
I can never accept such an offer.
59
Suit yourself.
60
The witch shut the door on his face.
61
Sadly, the man returned back home.
62
He wasn't able to tell anything to his wife.
63
As the days went on by,
64
the young lady got worse.
65
The baby was now in danger.
66
The young man had trouble sleeping now.
67
If he didn't accept the witcher's offer,
68
he was going to lose both his wife and his baby.
69
But if he accepted the offer and ended up having a baby boy,
70
both his wife and son would survive.
71
And so he made up his mind and headed to the witch's castle.
72
He accepted her offer and went back home with the bag of seeds.
73
He planted the seeds the witch had given him.
74
The seeds grew in a very short period of time.
75
The young man helped his wife eat the leaves he had grown.
76
As the days went on by, his wife got better.
77
She had fully recovered and gave birth to a healthy baby.
78
But the young man was facing his fear now.
79
It's a beautiful baby girl.
80
The same day they were having a big celebration at the King's palace.
81
The Queen had given birth to a baby boy.
82
The king was very happy,
83
because now after him, he had a prince that could lead the country.
84
The people loved their good-hearted king and queen very much.
85
No one would ever know that one day in the future,
86
the lives of these two babies would meet.
87
The husband and wife's happiness did not last very long.
88
Right on that same day,
89
the witch came and asked for the baby.
90
The couple handed over their baby in tears and said their farewells.
91
Oh my baby, oh baby.
92
She's mine now, but don't worry,
93
I will take good care of her.
94
And I will name her Rapunzel.
95
The witch took the baby to the tower.
96
This tower was hidden in the deep forest.
97
The witch went up the stairs to the very top of the tower.
98
They arrived at the room on the top floor.
99
The witch placed the baby in her crib.
100
Rapunzel, my beautiful baby.
101
Thinking that the witch was her mother,
102
Rapunzel continued living her life in this tower.
103
During daytime she would go down the tower,
104
play in the front yard,
105
and at night time she would go back up to her little room at the top of the tower.
106
The witch never cut Rapunzel's golden hair.
107
She brushed Rapunzel's hair every single day.
108
The little girl liked this very much.
109
Years had passed, Rapunzel had grown And now she was a teenager
110
One day the witch approached the tower and called out to Rapunzel Rapunzel,
111
my daughter, let your golden hair down Rapunzel let her golden hair down Her hair could reach the ground now
112
Nice!
113
The witch went up the tower stairs,
114
then stood at the top of the staircase and began to whisper magical words.
115
Suddenly the stairs began to crumble.
116
No spell in the world will ever ever be able to bring these stairs back again!
117
Meeh!
118
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
119
Ha ha ha!
120
Watching all that was happening with wonder,
121
Rapunzel knew that she could never get out of the tower again.
122
The witch was using Rapunzel's hair to go down the tower every day,
123
and in the evening, she would arrive at the bottom of the tower and call out to her.
124
Rapunzel!
125
Rapunzel!
126
Rapunzel, let your golden hair down, it's your mother.
127
After hearing her voice, Rapunzel would let her golden hair down.
128
And so the witch would hold onto her hair and climb up.
129
Mother, why won't you allow me to leave the tower?
130
Why do you keep me up here?
131
Oh my darling girl, I love you so much.
132
I'm just trying to protect you from the evil of the world.
133
Rapunzel spent all her days singing and talking to the birds that would visit her.
134
Back at the King's Palace,
135
the Prince that was born on the same day as Rapunzel had grown up and become a young man.
136
Now the old and sick King wished that his son the Prince would carry his father's throne,
137
marry a princess and give him a grandchild.
138
Although many princesses came by the palace,
139
the prince couldn't see any of them as his beloved wife.
140
In the end, the prince went on a long journey,
141
hoping to find his real love.
142
When he arrived at the corner of the forest where the tower was hidden,
143
he asked the men.
144
I had never come to this forest before.
145
Let's go through the forest,
146
maybe we'll find a shortcut.
147
My prince, this forest is magical.
148
It's said that whoever enters never gets out.
149
You said it yourself.
150
This might just be a rumor.
151
Let's go and see for ourselves.
152
The prince and his men entered the forest.
153
The prince was rather sure of himself,
154
but his men not so much.
155
A while later, the tower where Rapunzel lived appeared.
156
Later, they heard the singing voice of Rapunzel.
157
La la la la la,
158
la la la la la la,
159
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la.
160
What a beautiful voice!
161
After making his way closer to the tower,
162
the prince noticed Rapunzel singing.
163
For a while, he watched her in admiration.
164
Right at that moment, the witch appeared and yelled out to Rapunzel.
165
Rapunzel!
166
Rapunzel, let your golden hair down!
167
Hearing the witch calling, Rapunzel let her beautiful golden hair down.
168
And so the witch held on her hair and climbed up.
169
So, her name is Rapunzel.
170
The prince decided to stick around the tower for some time and watched Rapunzel.
171
The witch climbed down Rapunzel's hair every morning,
172
and at night climbed back up again.
173
Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let your golden hair down.
174
In the end, the prince gathered all his courage and on a day where the witch wasn't present,
175
he approached the tower and called out.
176
Rapunzel!
177
Rapunzel!
178
This was the first time Rapunzel was hearing another voice other than her mother.
179
At first she was a little hesitant,
180
but later she was very curious as to who this might be.
181
And so she looked down from the window.
182
She saw a young man looking at her from below. Who are you?
183
And how do you know my name?
184
I am the prince of this kingdom.
185
I heard your amazing voice and I wanted to meet you.
186
I'm not allowed to speak to strangers.
187
Please go away.
188
I mean no harm.
189
I promise.
190
Please calm down so that we can talk.
191
I can't.
192
There is no staircase.
193
Right that instant, Rapunzel saw her mother coming.
194
Hurry!
195
You must get away from here!
196
Mother shouldn't see you!
197
The prince quickly hid behind the trees.
198
Once the witch reached the tower, she called out.
199
And once Rapunzel let her golden hair down, she climbed up.
200
The prince began visiting every day.
201
They were now friends with Rapunzel,
202
and she now knew that the prince meant no harm,
203
and so she let her golden hair down.
204
The prince grabbed onto her beautiful blonde hair and climbed up.
205
Rapunzel was extremely excited.
206
It was someone she had never seen before,
207
standing right there in front of her.
208
Why is your mother holding you in prison in this tower?
209
Mother tells me that the world is filled with evil.
210
She's trying to protect me.
211
But this is ridiculous.
212
Why would a mother lock her daughter away in such place?
213
Yes, it's true that there's evil out there,
214
but there's also beauty amongst it all.
215
Rapunzel was curious to see if what the prince was saying was true,
216
and all she ever wanted to do was see and get to know the world outside.
217
At last, they made up their minds and wanted to run away together.
218
That night, when the witch returned to the tower,
219
she saw that Rapunzel had let her golden hair down.
220
Rapunzel saw me coming.
221
She has let her hair down.
222
After climbing up the tower, what does she see?
223
Rapunzel's hair cut and tied up on a piece of metal,
224
but Rapunzel was nowhere to be seen.
225
At that moment, she realized that Rapunzel had ran away.
226
Rapunzel cut her own hair and hung it on a piece of metal metal.
227
With the help of her hair,
228
she and the prince both climbed down the tower.
229
Rapunzel!
230
Rapunzel!
231
How dare you betray me!
232
Meanwhile, the prince and Rapunzel left the magic forest behind.
233
The story about the forest being magical was something the witch had made up,
234
because she didn't want anyone finding Rapunzel.
235
Rapunzel and the prince finally arrived at the palace.
236
Taking Rapunzel with him, the prince approached the king and queen.
237
And what does he see?
238
The king standing in front of him, healthy as ever.
239
Father, you look very healthy.
240
How did this happen?
241
A healing herb cured your father my son.
242
Let me see, what was it called?
243
Oh yes, Rapunzel.
244
Rapunzel?
245
The prince began telling all that had happened to him.
246
Then the king told him that an old couple had given him the herb.
247
Then he began telling the story about the evil-hearted witch
248
and the harm she had caused to the old couple by taking their baby on the day she was born.
249
The prince and Rapunzel made their way to the old couple's house.
250
As soon as the lady saw this golden haired girl,
251
she knew it was her baby Rapunzel that was taken from her.
252
My daughter, my daughter, oh finally I have loved you.
253
Listening to the true story from the beginning,
254
Rapunzel now had reunited with her parents.
255
Soon after, the prince and Rapunzel were married and they lived happily ever after.
256
So what happened to the witch that was stuck in the tower?
257
The king captured the witch and locked her up in the tower
258
and put guards at the bottom of the tower so that she couldn't escape.
259
along with the witch, her witchcraft and all her deepest secrets disappeared.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
