Mrs. Giant had been fairy. but she
| had been banished by the queen when
one day she stayed too long in the forest
talking to the biggest Giant and the
Fairy Queen found her
You shall no lo2 ,er be fairy" said
the Queen; instead you shall change
your FORM" so she touched the little
fairy with her wand and made her many
times her former size.
OF course. she could no longer live
with the fairies, and when the Biggest
Giant saw that she was large enough
to work, he said he would marry her.
In caves in the mountain lived the
green dwarfs. and they did not love the
Biggest Giant, for they had been driven
from their home, which was now the
home Of Biggest Giant, and he would
not allow them to return.
1t happened on the day that her hus-
band told her ne must have a new coat
that Mrs. Giant had left her work and
gone into the forest close by the noun

Mrs. Giant cried so hard that the
green dwarfts poked out their heads
from the caves to see what was going
on and one dwarf bolder than the rest
asked in a shrill high voice. What are
you crying about?' and Mrs Giant
told him about the new coat.
Mrs. Giant knew nothing about the
green dwarfs. for her husband did not
tell her they ha. neighbors because
he knew that once a green dwarf knew
Mrs. Giant then he was in danger of
losing his power.
When the Green Dwarf heard about
the new coat he laid a stubby finger
on one side Of his nose and thought
a minute I he nodded his head TO
all the other dwarfs. who were still look
ing out of their caves. and all the funny
heads disappeared.
