Once upon a time there was a boy so tiny their parents called him Patufet (very little).

One day his mother said:

'Patufet: Go to the grocer's and buy some saffron please'.

Patufet said goodbye to his mummy and off he went.

When he arrived to the grocer's he had to shout very loud to the shop keeper.

'Hey, it's me! I'm here ! I want some saffron please!'

He was so tiny, the shop keeper nearly didn't see him.

But Patufet, who was very brave, came back home with the saffron for his mummy and she was so happy to have such a wonderful child that she asked him

'Now Patufet, would you like to go to the forest and take the meal to daddy?

And Patufet of course answered ' Yes, mummy!'

He took a heavy basket with daddy's meal and away he went.

But on the way to the forest it started to rain and Patufet decided to wait for the rain to stop under a cabbage. A hungry cow was near there . The cow decided to eat that cabbage and because Patufet was so tiny it didn't notice he was under it. So the cow ate Patufet as well.

Finally they heard a tiny voice: 'I'm in this cow's tummy, here it's not raining but sunny!'

Patufet's parents started to feed the cow.

The cow grew fatter and fatter and fatter until it exploded and away went Patufet!

And that's all.
