--Opening---------------------

Once upon time, there was a woman.

She dreamed of having a baby,
but she didn't know what to do.


She then went to visit a witch and the witch gave her a grain of barley and said
"Grow this"

That was a magic grain that changes depending on the feeling of the owner.

She paid some money for this and planted it in a flower pot and grew the grain and then tried to talk to the grain often.

Time went by,  
and the grain had turned into a lovely flower,like a tulip.

The woman softly touched its petals the flower opened in full blossom and there was a tiny girl sitting inside.

The woman got delighted and called her Thumbelina,and took care of her very well
