OSCAR WILDE'S FAIRY TALES - REVIEWS

"THE HAPPY PRINCE"

The Prince, the swallow, a seamstress, a young writer, a little match girl, the Mayor, poor people in the city.

A swallow was flying to Egypt but it stopped to rest on a statue. It was the statue of the "Happy Prince", but the Prince was sad because he could see that the people in his city were poor. He asked the swallow to take the precious stones of his statue to help them. Since it was winter, the swallow died of cold. As a result, the prince died of a broken heart because he loved the Swallow. When the Mayor took the shabby statue down its pillar, an Angel brought the Prince's heart and the swallow to Paradise, where they lived happily together.

The story is beautiful but it is also very sad. I recommend you to read it.

"THE BIRTHDAY OF LA INFANTA"

It was the birthday of the beautiful Infanta of Spain, so there was a big celebration. A dwarf danced in front of the Infanta and her friends. She laughed a lot, because he was ugly. He was a very good person and thought that the Infanta liked him. After that, he entered the palace and suddenly, he saw his reflection in the mirror. At that moment, he discovered that he was ugly and that the princess really laughed at him. Then, his heart broke and he died. When the Infanta found him dead, she asked her uncle that, for the future, she wanted to play with people who had no hearts.
