BR 2-08: The Shoemaker and the Elves

I’ll talk about this book.
Reason why I choose this book, I thought this illustration is so cute. So, I want to read this book.

There is an old shoe shop in town. It isn’t a very good shop. One day, shoemaker and wife get up. And there are very beautiful shoes on the table. And a lady buys it. They get some gold coins. Shoemaker could buy new leather. And he makes another shoe, but it is late. So, his wife says “you should make them in the morning”. Next day, there is very beautiful two pair of shoes on the table, again. And he got some gold coins again. It is magic. And then he makes three pairs of shoes. But it’s late, so he doesn’t make shoes. He goes to bed. Next morning, there are three pairs of shoes on the table. Who is making these shoes? They hide and see two little elves at midnight. And they make beautiful shoes. The shoemaker and wife watch their works. And the shoemaker thinks what can we do for them? So, they make some clothes for them. At midnight, little elves find a box. There are some clothes in the box. They put on these clothes and they are joy! But, they have to go another place; because of they are known their true character. The elves never come buck there. But, shoemaker works harder before. So, his shop is better than before.
I recommend this book. This story is very cute, and it is filled of dream. I want to read again.
