The Shoemaker and the Elves

Once upon a time, a shoemaker lived with his wife behind his
workshop. The shoemaker was a good man, but he was very
poor.

He had only enough leather to make one pair of shoes. The


shoemaker was very tired so, he thought of making shoes in
the morning.
The next morning, he found a pair of nicely finished shoes on
his workbench.
Soon, a man came in and bought them for a good price.
With the money, the shoemaker was able to buy enough leather
to make two new pairs of shoes.

He cut out the leather and went to sleep. The next morning
there were two pairs of beautiful shoes.
This went on and soon, the shoemaker became a rich man.

The shoemaker and his wife wanted to know who was making all
the beautiful shoes for them. So that night the shoemaker left
some leather in his workbench as usual. Then instead of going
to bed, he and his wife hid behind the curtains.

They saw two tiny elves dancing and sewing the shoes. The
shoemaker was astonished.
They both decided to repay the elves for their help.

So, they made some warm clothes and tiny shoes for them.
That night, the shoemaker left the clothes and hid behind the
curtain. The little elves hopped up onto the workbench and saw
the clothes and shoes that had been left for them.
In the twinkling of an eye, they had dressed up. They
were so happy. They clapped and jumped excitedly, and
danced on the table, singing silly songs.

The shoemaker and his wife never saw the elves again. They
both never had any problems again. They lived happily ever
after.
