SNOW WHITE

Once upon a time there lived a little girl named Snow White.  She lived with her aunt
and uncle because her parents were dead. One day she heard her uncle and aunt talking about
leaving Snow White in the castle because they both wanted to go to America and they didn’t
have enough money to take Snow White.

Snow White didn’t want her uncle and aunt to do that so she decided that it would be best if
she ran away.  The next morning she ran away into the woods.  She was very tired and
hungry.  Then she saw a little cottage.  She knocked but no one answered so she went inside
and fell asleep.

Meanwhile, the seven dwarfs were coming home from work.  There they found Snow White
sleeping.  Then Snow White woke up.  She saw the dwarfs.

The dwarfs said, “What is your name?”


Snow White said, “My name is Snow White.”
Then, Snow White told the dwarfs the whole story.
The dwarfs said, “If you want, you may live here with us.”
Snow White answered, “Oh, could I? Thank you.”
She promised to cook and look after them. Finally, Snow White and the seven dwarfs lived
happily ever after.
