Once upun a time,in a land far far away,there lived a king.King Clement’s wife died many years ago and left him with one daughter.Princess Elizabeth was the most precious thing to king Clement.Whatever his daughter wanted,king Clement would give her.One day the king announced that a new statue would be shown at the courtyard fountain on the opening day of the country.Farely soon all the townspeople were talking about the statue to be placed in the courtyard.Stories were spreading that the king’s daughter princess Elizabeth herself who had made it.
While all this talk was going on,Peter,the baker ,was out of town and did not tell her the stories.On the day of the fair everybody gathered in the castle courtyard.Music was playing; games were set up and food served halfway through.The celebration trumpets sounded as the king unveiled the statue for the towns fountain.
When the statue was uncovered the crowd oohed and awed and clapped and cheered.‘’ Beautiful’’ yealled a group of woman.‘’Superb’’ called the men at the black.Now the strange thing about this was that the statue was quite ugly.Of courze since everybody knew who made it but nobody dared say anything bad in fear of the kings anger.All but poor Peter,the baker who did not know this.He laughed out loud and exclaimed ’’we can’t put that thing in the courtyard.It's embarassing.
The whole crowd went silent and they turned to the king standing on the steps of the castle.everybody waited to hear the order for Peter to be thrown into the dungun.The king spoke slowly ‘’ Come here,young man’’ Peter went to stand next to the king."My loyal subject ," said the king "my daughter and I have played a little trick,we wished to see if people would be honest with us.We brought out this hideous statue and had everybody believe my daughter make it but here is her real one." The guards brought out a statue that was remarkable ."This young man," said the king,"was the only person who was honest with us,he shew me he can be trusted,in fact ,trusted enough to have my daughter’s hand in marriage." after that Peter was not known as Peter,the baker,anymore.
