A young and very beautiful princess lost her ball in the water while she was playing
by the side of a lake. She began to cry so sadly that the frog who sat beside the lake crocked
to her, "What will you give me if I get you your ball back?"
"All the gold you could wish for!" replied the princess. "No, I ask only that I'll be
allowed to stay with you and be your friend," said the frog. The princess gave her word (what
did such a promise cost her if it meant she could have her ball back?), but she said absolutely
no intention of keeping her promises. In fact, the moment she had her ball back she ran off so
fast that the frog could not keep up with her. Nevertheless, after a while the frog arrived at the
palace.
As soon as she saw the frog, the princess was frightened. She ran to ask for help
from her father, but the king, who knew what had happened, ordered his daughter her
promise. So the princess picked the frog up gently in her hand, but, with a shiver of disgust,
she let it drop to the ground again. But that one brief touch was enough to break the spell that
bound the frog, and caused it to turn back into a young and handsome prince had been before.

The Princess and the Bowling Ball

Once upon a time there was a princes. And this prince’s dad and mom (the king and
queen) some how got it into their royal heads that no princess would be good enough for their
boy unless she could feel a pea though one hundred mattresses.
So it should come as no surprise that the prince had a very hard time finding a
princess. Every time he met a nice girl, his mom and dad would pile one hundred mattresses
on top of a pea. And then invite her to sleep over.
When the princess came down for breakfast, the queen would ask, “How did you
sleep?”
The princess would politely say, “Fine, thank you”.
And the king would saw her the door.
Now, this is when for three years. And of course nobody ever felt the pea under one
hundred mattresses. Then one day the prince met the girl of his dreams. He decided he’d
better do something about it.
That night, before the princess went to bed, the prince slipped his bowling ball under
one hundred mattresses.
When the princess came down for breakfast the next morning, the queen asked, “How
did you sleep, dear?”
“This might sound odd,” said the princes. ”But I think you need another mattress. I
felt like I was sleeping on a lump as big as bowling ball.”
The King and Queen were satisfied, and the prince and princess were married. And
everyone lived happily, though maybe not completely honestly, ever after.

41. What was the King and Queen problem about their son (prince)?
42. What did the King and Queen do to test every woman to be the princess?
43. What finally happened in the story?
44. Change into Direct Speech!
Dane told Marry to take his car with her to pick her grandmother.

45. Change into Indirect Speech!

The princess said to the prince, “I don’t want to be your princess because you are
very rude man.”
