| Summary |
"Thumbeli8na" A long time ago in Denmark, a childless couple is blessed with a radiantly beautiful baby girl. She is no bigger than a thumb, so she is called Thumbelina. Snatched from her family by an ugly toad who wants to marry her, Thumbelina escapes, befriending various creatures of the forest. Ultimately, she meets the king of the flower angels, with whom she finds happiness forever. "The emperor and the nightingale" The Emperor and his court in ancient China discover a little gray bird with an enchanting song. But when the Emperor is presented with a jewel-encrusted artificial singing bird, he banishes the nightingale from his court. Years later, he realizes that the song of the real nightingale is the true treasure. |
