A fisherman caught a flounder who turned out to be a prince. When he went home empty handed, the fisherman told his wife what happened. She told him to go back and wish for a cottage to live in. When he did the flounder gave them a cottage. The wife became unhappy and wished for a castle.
"The Fisherman and His Wife Cont."
When the wife got the castle she was still unhappy and wished to be king over the land. The fisherman went back and asked for it and she became king.
"The Fisherman and His Wife Cont.."
The wife was still unhappy and wished to be emperor. When she became emperor she was still unhappy and wished to be pope.
"The Fisherman and His Wife End"
The wife then wants to have power over the sun and moon. When the fisherman asks for this he puts the couple back in their old shack.
"Aschenputtel"
Aschenputtel's mother died and her father took another wife that had evil daughters. They treated her terrible and made her work long car days. The two daughters were invited to a ball and Aschenputtel wished to go also. The step mother gave her tasks to perform so that she could go to the ball.
"Aschenputtel Cont."
Aschenputtel went to the ball after the birds brought her a beautiful dress. She ran away at the end of the night without anyone following her. The prince searched for her but could not find her.
"Aschenputtel End"
When the prince kept one of her slippers he tried to find whose foot it fit. When he tried it on the two step sisters, one cut off a toe and the other sister cut off a part of her heal trying to get the shoe to fit. The prince saw the blood and refused to marry them. When Aschenputtel tried on the shoe it fit perfect and they married each other. The two sisters had their eyes plucked out.
