This second part of the reading was really interesting. This story in particular was different than the first one I wrote notes over. This time around, the daughter was super picky and the king father was the one who was frustrated. It had some resemblance to Goldilocks and the three bears. I also liked how at the end, the beggar put the princess in her place. She was spoiled living as royalty and her new life is punishment for that. I may retell this story and write it from the beggars perspective. It would be interesting what is going on in his mind.
