Rapunzel
Along time ago there lived a woman who longed more than anything for a baby she could call her own. She wanted this so much that she became unwell. One day the woman looked out of her window and saw some lettuce growing in a field next door. She said to her husband 'I will die if I she don't eat some of that lettuce!' Her husband knew that the lettuce belonged to the witch who lived there, but he loved his wife too much to refuse her. So he climbed over the wall and into the field. Unfortunally the witch saw him, and the poor man was terrified. The witch said that she'd let him go as long as he promised to give her his first born child. The man agreed, thinking he would never have a child, but coincidentally a few months later his wife fell pregnant and later gave birth to a baby girl. Unable to withdraw his promise, the man took her to the witch.
The witch looked after the girl very well, almost as if she were her own. She called her Rapunzel. Although as Rapunzel grew older she began to grow more beautiful. By the time Rapunzel had become a young lady, Rapunzel had become so beautiful that the witch had grown jealous of her. So she locked her away in a tower and threw away the key. When the witch visited Rapunzel, she would stand at the bottom of the tower and call out "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your long hair." Rapunzel would lower her hair out the window and the witch would climb up it.
One day a prince rode past he saw Rapunzel leaning out of her window, he climbed up Rapunzel's hair and into her room. Rapunzel fell in love straight away. Then when she looked out the window she saw a lovely young lady quite like Rapunzel coming riding up on a beautiful white stallion. She climbed up Rapunzel's hair and into the room and ignoring Rapunzel she said that she was Cinderella. Just then another lady came walking up saying that she was Snow White. She climbed up Rapunzel's hair (that Rapunzel had forgotton to pull out of the window). Unfortunately all the girls were in love with the prince and they fought over who the prince liked most. The prince sighed because he thought these ladies were all too ordinary and complained far too much. Then he heard some one calling "Rapunzel Rapunzel let down your long hair". The prince looked down out the window towards where he heard the voice he looked over and saw the ugly old witch and fell in love with her because of her uniqueness, talent and a bit of love potion she had thrown on him. The prince grabbed Rapunzel's hair and swung out the window.
Rapunzel pulled her hair out of the window, but it was too late. The prince was gone. He and the witch had riden off on Cinderella's white stallion away to his castle. As they galloped off the witch cast one last spell and Rapunzel's long braided hair was gone. Cinderella, Snow White and Rapunzel where stuck up in the tower for the rest of their lives. The prince and the witch got married and lived happily ever after, or at least as well as you can being married to an ugly old witch.
