The Queen Bee: In this story, there is a King with two tall, grown sons and one dwarf son. The two older ones think the dwarf isn't capable of much, but throughout the story his big heart causes him to save the lives of animals and bugs instead of killing them. In the end it benefits him because the bugs and animals help him with his life tasks.
The Twelve Huntsmen: In this story, a King leaves his wife to go see his sick, dying father. When he saw his father, he told his son who he wanted him to marry and then died. The King's daughter asked for 11 other girls that looked exactly like her. They dressed up all the girls as huntsmen, but the lions can tell they are actually girls in disguise. In the end, the King finds the girl he had originally left at the beginning and leaves his new wife for her.
