Once upon a time, long ago, there lived a king and a queen. They very much wanted a baby. But it never happened. One day, while the queen was taking a bath, a frog suddenly appeared and said: “Your wish will come true, you will have a daughter!”
And yes, the frog’s prediction came true. They soon had a very beautiful baby. In honour of her birth, a great feast was celebrated, and the child was given fairy godmothers. But the king only had twelve golden plates, so he invited only twelve fairies. They gave the baby special gifts like Goodness, Beauty and Wisdom.
