THUMBELINA

 

Once upon a time, there lived a mother and her little girl. The girl was so beautiful and energetic but she was so tiny. Her body was only the size of a thumb. So her mother named her Thumbelina.

One night Thumbelina was sleeping on her special bed. A frog came and saw her. The frog felt in love and wished to marry Thumbelina. Then the fog carried a way Thumbelina to the pond and placed her on a lotus leaf.

In the morning thumbelina woke up. She was so surpise. She was alone in the midlle of the pond.

“Oh my god. Where am I being now?”

“You are in my palace. You will be my queen. We will marry soon” the frog told his purpose arrogantly.

“No. I do not want to marry you”

“Don’t talk to much. You may not refuse me”

Thumbelina was so afraid. She did not want to marry with the frog. She was so sad. She cried sorrowfully. A fish heard her crying and took a pity on her. When the frog went by, the fish came nearer to the tiny girl.

“Who are you? What do you do here?”

“I am Thumbelina. The frog took me here. He wanted to marry me. Please! Help me back to my mother!

“The frog wanted to marry you?”

“Yes. But I do not want to. Please save me!”

The fish then decided to save Thumbelina from the frog. The fish pulled the leaf till the bank of the pond. After thanking to the fish, Thumbelina jumped to the land and run away from the pond quickly. Then she met a butterfly

“Hi.. Tiny girl. Where are you going. You look so hurry?”

“I lost my way home. Would you help me?”

“I would. But I am not strong enough to carry you. I will take you to the bird”

Then the butterfly took her to land full of beautiful flowers and birds. Thumbelina made many friends there.   She was happy staying on that place but it did not make her forget her lovely mother. Thumbelina then talked to a kind blue bird. She told about her story. Fortunately, the blue bird agreed to help her finding her mother.

“I know where your mother is. Let me pick you up there!”

            The bird flew a way to the land of people that were not so far from there. Thumbelina marked the land. It was her hometown. Thumbelina met her mother again. The city dwellers was so happy and they warmly welcomed her return. Finally, Thumbelina lived happily ever and after.

Well, ladies and gentelmen. From this story we can get a message that we should be string in every condition. Beside that we also shoul help each other. Ok. thanks for all. Bye bye.
