Fred and Astra Compare Fairy Stories
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 12123

"Oh dear," Astra said. "I'd better try again." This time she produced
clothes that
would have been a perfect fit had she only been twelve feet tall. "We have
a fairy
tale in Allaria called 'Goldilocks and the Three Bears," Fred
said. "Perhaps next
time you'll get the clothes just right." "We don't have that tale in
Aqualaria. We do
have one called 'Penelope and the Three Demifoxes', but it's definitely
not suitable for small children. Actually, as a child my favourite story
was 'Little Red Riding-hood'.
Especially the bit at the end where she takes a chopper and kills the
wolf." "Er, wasn't
that the woodman?" "No, I'm almost sure that it was the wolf that she
killed. Anyway,
I'm going to have one more try at producing wearable clothes before I give
up."
"Well," said Astra, examining the result of her latest attempt, "pink pyjamas wouldn't have been my first choice, but they do look as though they might fit."
