Assignment: Memorize a fairy story from another country and read it to the class.
My fairy storey is fromm Japan. Lord Sesshoumaru tels it to me sumtimes.
Once upon a time, there was an old man and an old woman. Though they were poor, they lived happily. One day, when the old man was working on the mountain, he sat on a stump to rest. He took out a rice ball that was wrapped in a bamboo leaf. But the rice ball fell out of his hands and on to the ground. As a matter of fact, it rolled down the mountain and fell into a hole!
The old man looked down into the hole. Then he heard someone singing: "Omusubi-korolin-sutton-ton." The old man was greatly amused, so he dropped another rice ball into the hole. He dropped another and another until he was completely out of rice balls. He laid his ears down near the hole: "Omusubi-korolin-sutton-ton." He tried to listen closer, but fell down the hole!
To his surprise, in the hole were many mice holding a festival. His rice balls had been changed into rice cakes by the mice. The mice cordially welcomed the old man. He sang and danced with them and had a pleasant time. In thanks for the rice balls, the mice gave him a lucky mallet.
The old man returned home and told his wife of the happenings. He showed her the lucky mallet. When he shook it, money came out.
The old man and woman lived happily forever.
