In this 328th issue of the
Baba Indaba’s Children’s Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the Fairy Tale ‘SLEEPING BEAUTY”.
ONCE upon a time, long, long ago and far, far away, there lived a king and queen who had no children; and this they lamented very much. But one day, as the queen was walking by the side of the river, a little fish lifted its head out of the water, and said, ‘Your wish shall be fulfilled, and you shall soon have a daughter.’
What the little fish had foretold soon came to pass; and the Queen had a little girl who was so very beautiful that the king could not cease looking on her for joy, and determined to hold a great feast. So he invited not only his relations, friends, and neighbours, but also all the fairies, that they might be kind and good to his little daughter. Now there were thirteen fairies in his kingdom, and he had only twelve golden dishes for them to eat out of, so that he was obliged to leave one of the fairies without an invitation.
This incensed the thirteenth fairy so much so, that one day she appeared in the Royal Court and placed a curse upon the daughter Beauty.
What was the curse you ask? Did it come to pass and what effect did it have on the family? Well, to find the answers to these questions, and others you may have, you will have to download and read this story to find out!
Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children’s stories from around the world. Baba Indaba translates as ‘Father of Stories’.
Each issue also has a ‘
WHERE IN THE WORLD – LOOK IT UP ‘ section, where young readers are challenged to look up a place on a map somewhere in the world. The place, town or city is relevant to the story.
