The Willow-Wren

Brothers Grimm are the greatest storytellers of all times. We proudly present you one of the most interesting tales by Grimm brothers The Willow Wren. Long ago, birds decided to choose a king. Only the green plover was against the idea, as he wanted to live free. One-day eagles, owls, sparrows, a small bird without a name and many others gathered together. They concluded that that one, who would be able to fly higher than others, would be a king. The eagle flew the highest, but a little fellow without name hid in the eagle’s breast feathers and, as he was not tired at all, flew higher than the eagle. Other birds were angry as he won by trick and decided to choose another contest. Whether they choose a king that day or not, you will recognize when you read the story.
