THE MAGIC PORRIDGE POT

Once upon a time, there was a little girl.
She lived with her mother who was very
poor.

One day, the little girl was out for a walk and
she saw an old lady drowning in the river.

The girl saved the old lady and the old
woman gave her a magic pot in return.

The old woman told the girl some magic
words to make the pot cook.

Cook, little
pot, cook!

She also explained how to make the
pot stop cooking.

Stop, little
pot, stop!

The little girl took the pot home to her mother and
said the magic words. The pot began to cook the

porridge!

Cook, little
pot, cook!

However, the girl’s mother tried to use the cooking
pot but she could not remember the magic words…



The porridge flowed out of the front door and onto the
street. Soon, the whole village was flooded with
porridge!

When the little girl came home, she said the magic
words and the pot stopped making porridge.

Stop, little
pot, stop!

There was enough porridge for the whole village and
they never went hungry again!
