Reviews
fairy tale in standard form
not so old
This fairy tale follows the standard format with everything coming in threes. It also has the weakness of fairy tales and short stories -- the abrupt ending. However, it provides an entertaining read and a good lesson in kindness as all fairy tales should.
i couldn't get through chapter 1 without many ads interupting
