In a faraway village lived a peasant and his wife. When a beggarwoman comes seeking food, the peasant’s wife offers her food. The beggarwoman gives her a barleycorn in return. The wife plants the barleycorn and surprisingly a tiny girl named Thumbelina emerges from the sprouted flower.
One night, when Thumbelina is fast asleep in her cradle, she is carried off by a cruel toad to marry her off to her son.
A friendly fish and butterfly help Thumbelina to escape the toad and her son. But her struggles don’t end. A beetle stag captures her but throws her away when his friends don’t like Thumbelina’s company.
An old mouse gives her shelter but insists her to marry the neighbor, a mole. Thumbelina does not like the mole because he stays insides and never comes out to enjoy the light and air. She runs away from the mouse’s home and escapes to a faraway land.
In a sunny flower field, she meets a tiny flower fairy prince who is her size and starts liking him. They marry each other and after the wedding she gets a pair of wings. She starts flying with her husband from one flower to another.

Let me tell you some words about one of the most important American holidays, I mean Thanksgiving Day. It is celebrated on the 4th Thursday of November. It is a great day of national togetherness. The date was officially established by Abraham Linkoln, the 16th president, in 1863. And since that time Thanksgiving Day become the national holiday. All members of the family gather around the table which includes a traditional roasted turkey, served with mashed potatoes, different vegetables and a savoury cran berry sauce. The entire feast is supplemented with a pumpkin pie and apple сидр. Before the meal people pray to express their gratitude for all they have. A lot of costumed parades are held around the country. The most picturesque one, organized in New York, unites more than 10 thousand participants and about 3 million and a half spectators. Macy’s Parade is really worth watching. As for me, I would like to take part in this marvelous event and enjoy its hearty atmosphere.
