ＢＲ 1-04: The Twelve Dancing Princesses (The Brothers Grimm, early 1800s)

Favorite line "I thought I said one night only! said the king, but he smiled."

Review
There were once twelve beautiful princesses.Their father , the king, was a grumpy old man who didn't believe in hsving fun. The tings they argued about most was dancing, but their father hated it.They loved dancing, so whenever he was't looking they danced anyway.

Even night, the king locked the tower door where princesses slept, so they couldn't sneak out. However, the shoes which they wore in dancing were found on the floor.When the king heard it, he was furious. He told them that they shouldn't be out dancing all night. However, they went to dance and they wouldn't tell him how they had escaped or where they had been. 

The king had a brilliant idea. He decided that first man to discover where his daughters went each night could marry one of them. One man came to discover that. The man failed, because he slept by drinking cocoa. Cocoa which made person sleepy was given by princess. Many men came, but everyone failed.

One day, a magician named Ralph and his pet dog, Rascal came. Night came and Ralph was put in the same room where the others had stayed. A few minute later, princess brought him a cuo of cocoa. He pretended to drink the cocoa, and pretended to fall fast asleep. Princesses thought he slept, so they get ready. There was secret door to go outside. One by one girls disappeared down some steps and into a long, dark tunnel. After that, Ralph clicked his finger and a cloak appeared. With a second click, he vanished, and tiptoed down the steps into the tunnel.There was castle and handsome princes. They reached there, a band began to play. The princesses danced.

Next day, Ralph told the king what he’d seen. He showed evidence, so the king believed. True to his word, the king let Ralph marry one of his daughters. The wedding was a joyful occasion. Even the king couldn't stop smiling. "As it's a special occasion, you may all dance, but for one night only" said the king, but he smiled. Ralph had worked some more of his magic.

I thought the king who was grumpy changed. He smiled in the last. I was very surprised and I became to like him, so I decided that line was favorite. Ralph's action made him change. I considered it was his magic!!  This story was very fun.

This is the story about the horse. The horse was born in farm. It was named Black Beauty.  It was brought up by mother horse and a man who lived in farm. He was used by another person. Black Beauty became a horse which moved carriage. He met a boy whose name was Joe, and pony whose name was Merrylegs. Black Beauty had a good time with friends.

After that, Black Beauty's life was very pressure. He was also used another person, and treated strictly. It was so hard that his body was hurt.  Black Beauty was passed another person many times. He was tired. He became very thin. 
Finally, he passed one man. He was Joe! Joe remembered Black Beauty. Black Beauty lived happily there.

I think Black Beauty's life was very hard!!! He was passed to a lot of people. He was also treated strictly.  If I was Black Beauty, I couldn't stand. My favorite line is from the scene which Black Beauty met Joe in the last. I think Black Beauty and Joe was very happy because they met again. I was also glad when I read this scen. This story is very good!
