Exclusive【Bedtime Stories for Kids】The Fisherman And His Wife
Once upon a time, a fisherman used to live with his wife in a pigsty near the seaside. One day, the fisherman sat on the shore with his rod, looking at the sparkling waves and watching his line. He was suddenly dragged away deep into the water and pulled out a great fish. But the fish said, ‘Let me live! I am not a real fish. I am an enchanted prince. Please leave me in the water again!’ ‘Oh, Swim away, please!’ The fisherman put the fish back into the water.
The fisherman went home to his wife and told her that he had caught a great fish and that it was an enchanted Prince.
‘Did you not ask for anything? We live in such a nasty dirty pigsty. Go back and tell the fish we want a small cottage,’ said the wife.
The fisherman went to the seashore. The water looked yellow and green. The fisherman stood there and said loudly:
‘O little fish! Hearken to me! My wife has her own will and hath sent me to beg a boon of thee!’
The fish came and said, ‘Well, what is her will? ’
‘Ah! my wife does not like living in the pigsty and wants a snug little cottage.’’ said the fisherman, ‘
Go home. Your wife is in the cottage already,’ said the fish.
