The Three Wishes

Once a woodcutter and his wife lived in a little
Cottage in a forest. One day, the woodcutter said
To himself, “My wife and I are so poor and hungry.
We work hard to get so little in return.”

Just then a fairy appeared, “I heard what you said.

I will help you. Your next three wishes shall be granted.”
Then the fairy disappeared.

The woodcutter hurried home and told his wife what

Happened. “We could ask for riches or a beautiful house,”
Said the man. “We could wish for a whole kingdom or
Pearls and diamonds,” said his wife.
 They could not decide what to wish for. Finally, the
Man looked at the crust of bread on his plate. “I wish I had a
Big sausage,” he said and a great sausage fell upon the table.
“You have been foolish,” said his wife. “One of the wishes
has now been granted and we just have a big sausage.”

“But we do have three wishes left,” said the man.

“We can still wish for riches and the kingdom.”

“It’s your fault that we can’t ask for even more. It’s
All your fault for being so foolish!”

“I’m tired of your complaints,” said the man. “I wish

That sausage would hung from the end of your nose.”

The next minute, the sausage was hanging from the

woman’s nose. She really complained now.

“We can still ask for riches,” said the man.

“What can we do with the riches? I have a sausage

Hanging from my nose and it’s all your fault!”

Finally, the woodcutter said, “I wish the sausage

Weren’t here at all.”

The sausage vanished. The woodcutter and his wife

Had used up their three wishes. They had no riches, no
Kingdom, no pearls, or diamonds, nor even a sausage!

How would you describe the situation of the

Husband And wife in the story? They are poor.

Who gave them the chance to improve

Their life? The fairy gave the
chance.

Did the woodcutter think very well above

The things he wished for? No, ma’am.

Why do you think so? Because he didn’t

Wish for the things
that are important.
 What caused him to wish carelessly? The bad attitude of his wife.

Do you think the three wishes were

Wasted? Yes, ma’am.

Why? He just wished for useless

Things.

Is the story of the woodcutter real

Or make-believe? It is make-believe.

Why? The fairy is not true and does

Not exist.

If you were the woodcutter, what

Would you have wished for? (The pupils will answer.)

What do you think is the lesson of

The story? The message of the story is
to think carefully before we
Act.

There are many stories in books which

Are available for us to read. They come in
Different forms. Some are true and some are
Not. Many are so inspiring that we fall into
Believing everything that happened on it as
True in real life. This greatly affects us. Oftentimes,
We believe that the same will also happen to us
And we expect for good things.

What important things should you

Remember when reading a story? We should learn to
determine whether the story
Is real or not.

(The teacher will elaborate pupil’s answers.)
