The Golden Goose

Once there was a kind, simple boy named Dummling. One day, he shared his meager food with a hungry old man in the forest. The man thanked him and told him to chop a tree. Inside, Dummling found a goose with golden feathers!

At an inn, the innkeeper’s daughters tried to take a feather but got stuck. Everyone who touched them got stuck too, forming a long, funny chain behind Dummling.

They reached the king’s castle. The princess saw the silly parade and laughed for the first time ever.

Dummling married the princess, proving that kindness brings great rewards.

Moral: A kind heart can bring happiness and fortune.
