( ) Toads and Diamonds: You may have heard the fairy tale of the two girls, one who speaks and has toads fall from her mouth, the other who speaks for diamonds. In the tale, this alone leads to a punished evil sister and a happily-ever-after for the diamond girl. In this book, that is what the fairy thinks will happen, but it turns out she didn't get the outcome she desired. The bad sister learns to take pleasure in the bugs coming from her mouth, setting them on races on which people bet. The good sister gets engaged to a prince who has her read aloud to fill chests with jewels until her throat is scraped raw. The fairy made a mistake - can she correct it and help the girls get what they deserve? A short, fun, sweet and icky story, good for at least 6 re-reads. This book is about a girl who had jews fall out her mouth. It all started out when she was going to the well to get something to drink for her mom and her twin sister. The reason why she had to go is, because her mom never mad her sister go, so she had to do it. When she went to the well, there was a fairy, but the fairy made herself into a old woman and made herself look thirsty to see what the girl will would do. So the girl gave the old woman some water, and the woman said she would reward her. So then when the girl got home, she was telling her family about the story and jews started coming out her mouth. So her twin evil sister went to find this witch to have jews fall out her mouth, but the fairy switched herself into a knight this time, and so the twin was being mean to the knight and so the fairy put a curse on that twin and mad bugs and snakes start falling out her mouth. So then the twin sister went and told her sister she was lying. So the sister with the jews went into the yard and started singing and the prince saw this and he wanted marry her cause of the jews, so they were to get married. And the prince was treating her wrong, like he would always make her talk to get the jews, and he told her, she would have to read all the books in the library to fill up the 15 chest, so they can make a new castle, but then she was so weak that she fainted, so she had to rest, and the girl was so mad that she called her sister with the bugs, and had her play her as a day to make the prince scared so the bugs can attack him. And the prince got so scared that he said the princess didn't have to read all the books anymore, and he will obey her and stuff. And they lived happily ever after. This is a funny story about two sisters who have problems with things falling out of their mouth. One of the daughters, Rosella, has beautiful gems falling out of her mouth when she sings or speaks; the other sister has bugs falling out of her mouth when she sings or speaks. There is an older lady in the story who Rosella is nice to which makes all of this happen because she is fairy. Rosella meets the prince and eventually they get married and live happy forever. I think this is a great book for children, it has some humor to it, but also teaches children the importance of being nice to others. This is a fairy tale about two twin sisters, one is very kind and one is a spoiled brat. The kind sister goes to fetch a pail of water and when she gets to the well there's an old woman who asks for a drink of water. When the girl gives her a drink the old woman turns out to be a fairy and gives the girl a gift-whenever the girl speaks jewels fall out of her mouth! When a prince sees her a few days later and sees jewels come out of her mouth, he proposes on the spot, saying he loves her dearly--only he ends up being cruel and making her talk constantly and snatching the jewels when they come out! The girl decides this can't continue, but she is so kindhearted she doesn't know what to do without hurting anyone's feelings. In the end she figures out a clever trick to make him stop for good. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
