The Golden Goose in Italian

A0–B1 graded story, English translation and illustrations · Grimm Brothers

The Golden Goose is a humorous Brothers Grimm story about a kind young man whom everyone calls Simpleton. While his older brothers refuse to share their food with a stranger, Simpleton treats the man generously and is rewarded with a goose covered in golden feathers. When curious people try to steal the feathers, they become magically stuck to the bird—and to one another. The strange procession grows as Simpleton travels toward the palace, where a princess has forgotten how to laugh. Making her smile is only the first of several challenges set by her unwilling father. Can kindness and good fortune help Simpleton overcome every impossible task?
