RE: https://bookstodon.com/@ododopress/117287368419221764
This is a folk tale I immediately fell in love with, though the original ended in marriages, but I liked the concept. I think it was about greed, a father denying his children food in a time of famine, and attempting to murder them when they discover his secrets... Story telling back then was really dark.
Enjoy this rewrite! :-))

Free ebook: “Four Stories for Spring” by Ellen Robena Field
Dear friends and followers of the Grammaticus blog,
With the arrival of spring, it’s time for another quarterly ebook from the Grammaticus Free Library series: “Four Stories for Spring.”
The author of these stories is Ellen Robena Field (1869–1957), a children’s writer and educator from Bangor, Maine. Nowadays sadly overlooked, she is best known for her collection of short stories “Buttercup Gold and Other Stories”, originally published by the Bangor Kindergarten Association in 1894.
The ebook here available contains four spring-themed stories from that collection, with the accompanying vocabulary notes and illustrations designed primarily for English language learners (levels B1 and above).
To download your PDF copy, click on the link below. To browse all the previous Grammaticus Free Library titles, visit the Library section of this website.
