Diamonds and Toads was an awsome fairy tale. It was about a widow who had two cildren. The oldest daughter was the rude one and the youngest daughter was the nice one. One day the youngest had to go to the well and get some water. A Fairy was near by and asked her for a drink. Since the youngest daughter was nice and polite with good manners she allowed her to have a flower, jewel or diamond fall from her mouth when she talked. So the oldest daughter decided to go to the well also. She came in contact with the same fairy. The oldest was ride so she made it so toads and vipers would fall from her mouth. Carma! You got to believe in it!
An accessible retelling of a classic French fairy tale. Easy reader.
