The class was going to a field trip. They took their pet, Fluffy, with them. He was so hungry that he ate Ms. Day’s apple. When the children were in the planetarium, they learned about stars and constellations. Fluffy, on the other hand, got confused. He didn’t understand anything so he slept. He had a dream. He was telling the little guinea pigs about constellations of himself, a carrot, a dish and other animals. He woke up hungry and ready for dinner.

CAPS FOR SALE
Here was once a man who was a peddler of caps. That day, nobody bought caps from him. He got hungry but he had no money to buy food. He planned to go to the country. He saw a tree along the way so he sat down and had a long rest. When he woke up, he no longer had the caps for sale on his head. Up on the tree, the monkeys irritatingly imitated his actions. The peddler got angry and threw his own cap on the ground. The monkeys threw the caps, too. The peddler gathered the caps on the ground and went back to town.

RUMPLESTILTSKIN
Once there was an old man who told the king that he has a daughter who can turn things into gold. Upon hearing that, the king ordered that the old man’s daughter be brought in one of the rooms in his palace. Inside the room were piles of hay. The king told the beautiful young lady to turn the same into gold or else, she will be killed. During the night, the lady was helpless and she just cried. Then a dwarf appeared and offered the lady some help if she is willing to trade her jewelry. So, the lady agreed and gave her necklace to the tiny man and then the latter disappeared after he turned the piles of hay into gold. Upon seeing the room filled with gold, the king transferred the young lady to another room and he ordered the young lady to turn more piles of hay into gold. On the second night, she cried again and the tiny man appeared. He again offered some help in exchange for a trade-in. This time, the young woman gave him her ring and the piles of hay were turned into gold.
The king came to know what happened but he was so greedy and he asked that a third room that was full of hay be turned into gold. That night, the woman felt miserable. Then, the tiny man offered to help but there was nothing that the young woman can give. So the tiny man proposed that he will turn the hay into gold but he has to get the young woman’s first born baby as a sort of trade-in. The young woman agreed.
Then the king was so delighted that he married the old man’s young daughter. She gave birth to a very healthy boy but then the tiny man returned to get what she promised him. The queen begged and she asked the dwarf not to take her baby. The tiny man said he’d do that only if they could guess his name correctly.
After so many attempts to find out the tiny man’s name, the queen grew hopeless. But then one time, her most loyal servant followed the tiny man into the forest and there in front of the fire was the tiny man dancing and he mentioned his name as “Rumplestiltskin”.
On the deadline, the tiny was confident that he could get the baby but to his great surprise, the queen guessed his name properly. He jumped so high and disappeared. He was never heard of again.
