Fairy Stories Rewritten with Happy Endings
Rapunzel
by
Isabelle
Once
upon a time there was a beautiful girl called Rapunzel. She had long golden hair and could
sing like a bird. When Rapunzel was a child, a wicked witch had taken her from her
parents. The witch kept Rapunzel in a big, tall tower with one small window at the top
with no entrance below. Each morning Rapunzel would open the window to sing and each
morning the witch came with some bread and milk. On arriving, she called up to the window:
“Rapunzel!
Rapunzel! Let down your hair.” Then
Rapunzel uncoiled her long hair and the witch would climb up the hair. One day, a few
years later, a prince was riding through the forest and heard Rapunzel singing. He was
enchanted by her voice, and again and again went back to the tower to listen. One morning,
while the prince was hiding in the bushes near by, the witch arrived and her heard her
chant to Rapunzel: Then
he watched in amazement as the witch climbed up Rapunzel’s long hair. The very next
day as the sun went down, he decided to try the chant himself. “Rapunzel!
Rapunzel! Let down your hair.” He
called in a gruff voice, just like the witches. Rapunzel uncoiled her hair and in a few
seconds the prince had climbed up her hair. At first Rapunzel was afraid. She had never
seen a prince before. But he was gentle, kind and very handsome. After that he visited her
every evening and soon Rapunzel loved him as much as he loved her. But one morning
Rapunzel said to the witch: “Why
are you so rough when you climb up my hair? The prince never hurts me.” Immediately, the witch knew that Rapunzel had been
tricking her. When she knew this she took Rapunzel back to her parents that she had never
met before. The prince though, found Rapunzel and took her and her family to safety and
the wicked witch to his palace. The prince asked the magician to make a potion to heal the
witch from her nastiness and cruelness. Then the witch fell in love with the magician and
they got married and Rapunzel got married to the prince and they had two children. The
nice witch and the wizard made their own cottage. Everyone lived happily ever after
…… (as usual).

The Three Little Pigs and the Big, Not-so bad Wolf
by
Jonathan “But,”
their mum said. “I have only bought them
because there is a famine and you must leave home due to food loss, and I will keep the
old football.” She gave each pig $500
and sent them on their way. Now, these pigs
were smart enough to know that they should build their houses with this money (to buy
building equipment, not build a house of money). However,
George was not too bright and nor was he a great bargain finder. Henry was smarter, but
still not smart enough to know a bargain. But
Jack, he was brainy and good at finding low prices! *** So, George
decided to build a house made of straw. He
found a dairy farmer who was willing to sell some straw for $501. Therefore, George had to milk the cows once for $1
so that he could afford the straw. Meanwhile,
Henry saw a log cabin and thought, “I’d LOVE a log house like that.” A builder happened to be walking by, and he said
to the pig, “What did you say you wanted?” “A
house of wood,” replied Henry. The
builder saw the log cabin and realized that Henry wanted a log cabin like that one. “Sure, I’ll build you one,” said
the builder, with a secret grin. “Although,
it will cost $500!” “My,
that’s cheap,” exclaimed the pig. “Can
I have your name and number, please?” asked the builder. “Well,
my name is Henry Piggot and my phone number is 0000 0000,” said piggy. “Probably
based on his brain power,” thought the builder. Two days
later, Henry gave the builder $500 and the builder quickly moved off. Henry found out why the house was so cheap and why
the builder moved away so quickly and why he seemed so secretive and so on almost
immediately, because he saw the house and could you believe it was made of just simple
STICKS? “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!” cried Henry.
Jack, in the mean time, had been thinking (unlike the other pigs) about how
he should build his house. In the end, he
decided to go bargain hunting for bricks and cement.
While walking down the street, he saw a person dragging some cement across
the road. “Can
I have that cement?” he asked. “Yeah,
for $100,” said the man. “Oh,
that’s expensive,” said Jack. “Why
not sell it for $5, to get rid of it?” asked the clever pig. “Well,
I guess, here you go.” Jack Piggot
handed him the money and was off to buy some bricks from the builder who cheated Henry
with the sticks (Jack didn’t know this). He
went up and said, “Can I have those fine bricks there for $455?” he asked. The builder, noticing that Jack would try to get
these bricks with his life in his desperation said, “Sure, but I warn you, they could
collapse any moment now because they’re practically hollow!” “That
doesn’t matter,” said Jack. “I’ll
have them good again in a second.” The
builder, knowing it would cost more money to mend the bricks, gave him the bricks for just
$400, thinking Jack would go to his friend who he worked with (the builder and his friend
decided the builder would sell bad bricks and his friend would rip off more money for the
mending). Piggy, however, decided he would
use his spare concrete for filling in the holes. “You
watch that!” cried the wolf “HA,
HA, HA!” Pig
turned scarlet. “Well, anyway, I’m
blowing down your house so that I can have some pork.” “NOOOOOO!” cried George. “Some straw has cow dung in it!” But it was too late. Oh, what a mess it made. The wolf was covered in sticky manure. Well, at least this gave piggy a distraction for
escaping. Next, the wolf came to Henry’s
house. “Little pigs, little pigs, let me
come in!” the wolf sung. Henry, who knew
what poetic license was, said, “No no, no no, not by the hair (that’s the poetic
license bit) of my chinny, chin, chin.” “Good pig,” the wolf replied. “I will count to five before eating you now
as a present.” So the pigs booby trapped
the house while the wolf counted, “1, 64, 657, 462, 20, 584, 777, 9, 4, 5!!!” He blew the house in and was covered in
sticks, which stuck to the manure. The pigs
ran to Jack’s house while he got the sticks out of his mouth. A very angry wolf
arrived at Jack’s house waving some white socks on a stick, and he put his signature
on a piece of paper which said, "If the wolf does not attack the pigs, the pigs
will not give the wolf a hard time, OR a manure bath either for that matter.” Wolf.. Jack,
George, and Henry. **** And as for the
crooks, they stopped their life of crime and became farmers with the wolf and pigs. Altogether, everyone had enough money to keep the
group going. But also, the cement seller
joined them after a year or two to help out with the accounts. The End
The Three Little Pigs and The Big Friendly Wolf
by Caitlin Once upon a time there were three little pigs who lived with their mother and father on a farm. One day the youngest pig thought that he would go and build himself a home. When he had only gone one km he found a pile of straw. It took him a whole day to build the house but when it was finished it didn’t look like a house so he fixed it up. After about a week the other pigs decided that they would go and build homes too. The second oldest pig made his house of sticks. But the oldest pig went straight to the town and bought some bricks and cement to build his house. It took a week to build that house because it was a very hard job. After a few days a friendly wolf came and asked the youngest pig to come and play with him but the pig said: "No, go away ! Pigs don’t play with wolves." So the wolf went to the second oldest pig’s house and called out to him: "Little Pig, Little Pig, come out and play with me?"But the little pig did not trust him so he called out: "No go away pigs don’t play with wolves." So the wolf sneaked down through the chimney but he got stuck on the way. The oldest pig was making a peaceful potion on the fire. When the potion was nearly ready he went of to collect the other pigs who wanted some of the potion. When the pigs had drunk the potion the youngest pig said: "I wish I’d been nicer to the wolf" and then the wolf was so surprised that he fell down and the second little said: "There he is !" Then the pigs said sorry and they ALL lived happily ever after. Cinderella
by Emily Once upon a time there
lived a girl named Cinderella. Her Dad had
died and had told Cinderella, “When I die look
after the house and Auntie Mary will look after you.” Cinderella’s Auntie Mary
always told her to do the jobs around the house. Cinderella had to get up in the morning
at five o’clock on the dot or something bad would happen but she didn’t know
what. In the morning Cinderella would go to the chicken cage and get some eggs. She would
cook them, and make a glass of milk before her Auntie woke up or she wouldn’t have
any food for a week. For lunch she would cook some rice and fish, and for dinner she would
pick some vegetables and sometimes turkey and sometimes duck. In between that she would do
the dishes, mop the floor, wash clothes and every second day she would go to the well and
collect water. That went on for a few days until one day in the mail there was an
invitation to a ball, at which would be decided who would marry the king and prince. Both
Cinderella and her Auntie were both very excited but Cinderella didn’t know if she
was able to go. So she asked her Auntie and she said, “Yes, only if you
find a nice dress and help me find a nice dress too.” When they both had found a nice
dress they left to go to the ball. When they had arrived the king and prince called off
the ball saying they had found somebody for the prince and king to marry. The wedding went
on the next day and everyone in the land came to see the marriage. Almost everyone brought
a present and everyone had a great lunch, the big celebration feast. They all lived
happily ever after.
Once upon a time there
was a mean stepmother, a father and two children called Hansel and Gretel. They were very
poor. One day the stepmother said to the father “Go to find a job and don’t come
back until you find one!”. So the father said goodbye and left. The next day the
children and their stepmother went to the woods to collect berries. Hansel had some stones in his pocket and dropped them on
the path so they wouldn’t get lost. After picking berries they got tired and fell
asleep and sneakily the stepmother left them and went home. They were all alone when they
woke up. Gretel was unhappy they were lost but Hansel had dropped the stones along the way
and they would help them get home. They followed the pebbles and found home.
