The Elves and the Shoemaker - Louie

Once upon a time there was a happy shoemaker. He was poor and couldn’t afford food for himself and his wife. They lived in a village. One day the shoemaker put some leather on the bench. The next morning 2 shiny shoes were on the bench a couple of hours a later a rich lady came and bought the shoes the next day the shoemaker put more leather down. Again the same the thing happened. The man wondered who was making the shoes so one day they put a candle out and waited. 2 elves came in and started making the shoes. The wife said “these elves have been working so long I think they need some clothes.” The wife knitted 2 little t-shirts and the man knitted 2 caps as well then they wrapped the presents and hid behind the bench. 2 elves came in and hopped on the bench wasn’t any leather on the bench there was only presents the elves found out they were for them they ripped the present open. They said we will stop making shoes and danced off singing “we are so handsome “. The wife and the man never ever saw them again.
