The Shoemaker and the Elves

Reading book: The Shoemaker and the Elves

        Dear students, families, teachers and friends:

        Our dear students at 2nd level are going to read “The Elves and the Cobbler” or “The Shoemaker and the Elves”. It is an often copied and re-made story about a poor shoemaker who receives much-needed help from elves.

        The original story is the first of three fairy tales, contained as entry 39 in the German Grimm's Fairy Tales under the common title "Die Wichtelmänner". In her translation of 1884 Margaret Hunt chose The Elves as title for these three stories. 

         I will upload their worksheets. I hope you like them.

         Your teacher and friend, Christopher Angel
