Work ID: 65301
Description: Text: But just then he instantly disappeared. On a mound of green moss she fell immediately into a deep sleep, talking and crying out in her sleep. With these utterances she revealed a great longing to look into the boy's eyes again. But it was unknown to her for in deepness she slept, her size diminished to that of a pea. The gentle birds covered her with a rose petal. The gentle birds cared for her like that for many seasons.

Work ID: 65298
Description: Text: The girl gave the dahlia to the little robber girl. The robber girl had never been given anything before and was surprised at the happiness she felt for she had usually felt miserable. In the goat shed, the Robber Family kept a great Black Bear tied in chains. That night, the little robber girl unbound the bear and the girl. And here are two loaves and a ham for you, so you won't be hungry. The Black Bear put the girl on his back and flew up above the ground, where they hovered for some time. There was an earthquake below them, which swallowed up the house with all of the robbers in it, even the little robber girl.

How did you manage to come in here, thus far, out into the world? asked the bird. I have come simply, she replied. I am experiencing everything. She then tasted the cherries. They were better than any picture book, for each one of them could tell a story.

Description: Text: The Robber Family then happened there and stole the girl, who held a beautiful dahlia she had picked from the dahlia bed. The robbers feared nothing, for they were compelled by greed. The robbers put her in chains and fed her the fat of many sacs of Downy Woodpeckers to fatten her up. The robber daughter had a big sharp electric knife in the bad. She kept it under her pillow.
