Gingerbread man is tasty♪ But I was surprised this story('д’;) There are many tragic fairy tales in foreign counties. In Japan, there hardly are such stories.
Once upon a time, an old woman and old man lived with horses and cows. They wanted their children. Then, she made a gingerbread man. He began to run away as soon as he left an oven. She and he followed him. He ran singing. Watching it, a horse and cow also followed him to eat. Watching the old woman and man, the horse and the cow was following; farmer also followed him to eat. Watching the old woman and man, the horse, the cow and farmer was following; children also followed him to eat. The gingerbread man ran and ran singing. Then, he found stream ahead. A fox told him to help to cross the stream. He took on a fox's tale. But his tale got wet. He moved to the fox's back. But there also got wet. He moved to the fox's head. Then, suddenly the fox ate him!
Oh no! Then, what this story wants to say? It's just cruel! After reading it, I researched about the gingerbread man. His origin is thought having started in British. Henry VIII said ginger takes effect to Pest having spread in British in those days. Many people made cookie added ginger. By the way, fox always acts the villain in Japan and foreign countries, I think. Do you know this is why? (。_°) (252 words/total: 7408 words)
