Question

    Once there was an old woman. She lived in a shoe with her children. They all looked after each other.

The family didn’t always live in a shoe. They had a house before living in the shoe. One day, a giant ( 巨人) came, broke it into pieces and took the father to his castle ( 城堡). The woman’s family were sad. Then the youngest son found the giant’s huge shoe. He suggested staying in it until their father came back, but the father never did.

Finally, the eldest son decided to go to the giant’s castle. At the castle, he found his father in a cage in a large room. However, a dragon was sleeping there. He killed the dragon and then saved his father out of the cage.

Back at the shoe, the old woman thought her son was in trouble. A witch ( 女 巫 ) offered to help. She did something to make the giant’s feet painful. Now, the giant wanted his old  comfortable shoes. He went to look for them and found the woman’s shoe home. It was his!
