The Three Little Pigs
Three little pigs built their own homes: one of straw,
one of sticks, and one of bricks.

A big, bad wolf came huffing, “I’ll blow your house


down!” *Whoosh!* The straw house fell. *Whoosh!*
The stick house fell. But the brick house stood
strong.

The wolf climbed down the chimney, but the clever


pig lit a fire. *Yowl!* The wolf ran away, and the
three pigs lived safely in the brick house, singing,
“Hard work keeps us cozy!”
The Magic Paintbrush
A kind boy named Ma Liang dreamed of
helping his hungry village.
One night, an old man gave him a magic
paintbrush. Whatever Ma drew came to life!
He painted food for the poor and tools for
farmers.
A greedy king demanded gold, but Ma drew
a storm to sink the king’s ship. The villagers
cheered, “Magic is best when shared!”
The Little Red Hen
A little red hen found wheat seeds.

“Who will help me plant them?” she asked.


“Not I!” said the cat, dog, and duck.
So she planted them herself. When the
wheat grew, she asked again, “Who will help
me bake bread?” “Not I!” they said. The hen
baked the bread alone and ate it all.

The lazy friends learned: *If you don’t help,


you don’t get crumbs!*
Cinderella
Once, there was a kind girl named Cinderella who lived
with her mean stepmother and stepsisters. They made
her sweep and scrub while they went to the prince’s
grand ball.
But a fairy godmother appeared! With a wave of her
wand, Cinderella’s rags became a sparkling gown, and
mice turned into horses. “Be home by midnight,” the
fairy warned.
At the ball, Cinderella danced with the prince, but at
midnight, she ran away, leaving one glass slipper. The
prince searched the land until he found her—the only
one whose foot fit the slipper. And they lived happily
ever after.
