The Elves and the Shoemaker - Ben

Once upon a time there was a poor shoe maker and his wife. They lived in a village. One day the shoemaker left some string out in the morning there was a shiny pair of shoes. He went to see his wife. His wife said who would be making such nice shoes. So they came up with a plan. One night they set some leather out and watched. Later some Elves came in and made two pairs of shoes so his wife said “How will we ever pay them back?” “I know” said the shoemaker “we can knit them some clothes.” When they finished they lay them on the work desk. Later the elves came skipping in and saw some presents and ripped them open look said the elves. We got some clothes and they ripped their old clothes of and put their new clothes on and skipped out saying “Oh what handsome boys we are.” The shoemaker never saw the elves again.
