I never find it unusual now when I come across a fairy tale from Hans Christian Andersen that’s a little quirky. This week’s fairy tale centred around five peas in the pod. These peas are wondering what’ll happen to them, when a human opens their pod. All five peas scatter to different parts of the room. One of the peas happens to roll into a crack in the window. It starts to sprout and catches the eye of a sick girl. All of the other peas from the pod are eaten by birds or roll into the gutter. However, the pea in the crack in the window, is saved by the girl. It grows up and makes the girl happy and healthy!
I’ve never heard of this fairy tale, but it sounds really cute. I love that the little pea pod ends up making the sick girl happy.
Yes, it’s super cute! 🙂
