Once upon a time…

There was a princess called Maggie, she was tall and as white as snow. She had red lips like a rose and her hair was brown. She had light blue eyes and was very nice and kind.

She was in love with a bricklayer called Kevin. He was tall, had brown hair and tanned skin. He was strong, had dark eyes, was kind and he was never angry.

He was also in love with her, but never said anything, unlike Princess Maggie who told the whole kingdom, that is, the whole kingdom except for her dad, because would have been very angry. Her mum knew everything.

One day, Maggie decided to tell her dad, she thought he deserved to know and could not continue to hide the secret from him.

Instead of telling him directly, she prepared a surprise for Kevin. She sent him many flowers made into the shape of the words: “I love you”. He was very happy and went running to the castle. The princess was waiting for him, and they kissed. The father saw them, went up to them and screamed:

– “None of my daughters will be with a bricklayer!”

And separated them.

Maggi said: “It doesn´t matter what he is, everyone is equal, I love him above all. If you loved me, you would let me be with him. Just because someone has more money than another or different surname doesn’t mean that we are different”.

The father went quiet and after a few minutes said:

“Daughter, you are right, I love you and I will allow you to be with him, because I can see that you love each other and that everyone is equal”.

And they lived happily ever after..

Moral of the Short Story for Kids: A name, lifestyle or money doesn’t matter. Everyone is equal.

Values of the Short Story for Kids: Never give up if you love someone.

Once upon a time there was a little cook living in a faraway town, it was really faraway. She was called Caroline, and was a cute and good girl. Her hair colour was curly and golden blond and so long it reached her waist. Her eyes were as blue as the sky and her lips were so pink that even the roses were amazed by them. She had cute freckles on her cheeks that gave her a touch of mischeviousness.

The faraway town had a king who was always sad, in a bad mood and bored. He ate chips, hamburgers, soda, sweets and all the junk food he could buy, because he did not have any chef in his palace because of his difficult character.

Meanwhile in town, Caroline, the little cook, cooked nice, nutritious meals for the poor kids in town.

One day, she had a great idea. She summoned up the courage to go to the king´s palace to talk to him. When she rang the doorbell, the king opened the door frowning, angry and grumbling. When Caroline saw him she began to play with her curls, nervously, but then took a deep breath and asked the king for permission to use his huge kitchen to cook nutritious recipes for the kids. His facial expression was incredulous that this little girl would ask him something like that.

“What an impertinence!” – thought the king

He looked at her, shocked, angry and dubious, astonished by the willpower, solidarity and bravery of the little girl in front of him. He thought for a second and then allowed Caroline to use his kitchen with an emphatic “yes”.

Caroline jumped for joy and hugged the king. Then she collected pumpkins, chards, tomatoes, aubergines, peas, carrots and many vegetables from her family´s vegetable garden.

The king could not resist the temptation to visit the kitchen and smell the exquisite aroma coming from there. He wanted to see the delicious meals that Caroline was cooking. When she saw him, she invited him to taste the flavoursome, aromatic and nutritious stew that she was cooking.

From that day on, the people from that faraway village have a happy king, who holds a big ball in the palace garden with the kids of the village and shares his big table full of delicious food with the people from the town. Caroline has many kitchen assistants and even the king has learnt to cook as he now appreciates healthy food, fresh and colourful!

And this is the end of the story!

There was a beautiful princess who one day met a boy in her village. The problem was that the boy’s reputation was a bad one, and the King, father of the princess, didn´t like him at all.

But the princess didn´t believe the rumors about the boy and started dating him behind the backs of the people and of her father.

As time passed, the people in the village noticed that something was going on between the two of them, and rumours spread.

The King heard that his daughter was dating this boy and, when she confirmed the rumours the King became furious:

– “I can´t believe you have betrayed me!”

– “I am really sorry, but I love him, and he is so nice to me.” – said the princess, before running to her room.

The princess was crying in her room when her father came in:

– “I´m sorry my child, you are right. If you love him and he loves you I should be happy enough, I just don´t want you to be hurt.” – and he added – “I just want the best for you.”

The princess understood her father and forgave him.

After a few years, the princess and her boyfriend got married and the King and her daughter´s husband became very close friends.

Everybody knew her as “Little princess” because she was so small and cute and always smiling.

But, unfortunately, her mother died and the poor little princess became the only heir to the kingdom at 5-years old.

So, little Mely became the queen of the Kingdom. People didn´t like the idea because she was still too young but Mely was very smart. She had been with her mother during her entire reign and had learnt from her. But the most important value she had learnt was honesty.

One of the queen´s counselors wanted to take advantage of the situation and planned to discredit Mely and so disinherit her. In this way he would become King.

The adviser worked on his plan and began to speak badly of the little queen in the palace´s corridors, but Mely heard him and had an idea.

She convened all the townspeople in the main square to explain to them what the adviser was doing.

“I´m going to be a good queen. My age doesn´t matter, what matters is that I am not marred by adults politics. I will always be honest with you.  The advisor was then expelled from the Kingdom for being a traitor.  “We want honest values in our town!”

And that´s how Moly became one of the most valued queens ever, and people in town really loved her because she was nice and honest with them.

He was 8 years old, and nobody in the village wanted him to become the prince because they all said that he was cursed.

One day he asked his father: “ Why do people say I´m cursed?”

The King told him that a witch had said it when he was a baby, and although it was a lie, some people had believed her.

The infant was very sad, and his father decided to teach a lesson to those people to make his son feel happier.

One night he went to the prince´s room and gave him a black cape and a diadem with two horns and told him what to do and then waited.

The boy went out onto the balcony and said: “I am the devil, I have just eaten my parents, I will eat you too if you don´t obey me!”

The people in the kingdom were very scared, the prophecy of the witch was real, or that´s what they thought…

Those who liked gossip ran away from the kingdom, and the rest stayed in the village and lived happily forever in the kingdom.

The infant became the King some years later and all the citizens loved him.

But bad times arrived. Grain became scarce and Arthur´s suppliers of bread had to close their business. So the King went looking for another bread supplier, but couldn´t find one.

King Arthur wanted to solve this problem so as not to break his promise. So he arranged a meeting in the town’s main square and offered a job to anyone who wanted to be the baker of the kingdom.

A man who didn´t have a job said he would be the baker. Everyone was very happy and waited anxiously for their new bread.

But after two months, people in the town began to complain about the bread. Nobody in town liked it at all, so the baker resigned when he realised that he had no talent for cooking.

King Arthur again tried to find a solution, but had no idea what to do. Finally, he decided to be the baker himself.

The Royal Castle became a bakery, and the King became the best baker ever known in the kingdom.

His bread became famous all over the world, and people from all parts of the world wanted to taste the bread of King Arthur.

THE END

The moral of the story: make an effort to keep your promises.
