"The Cracovia Dragon"
by
Jacek Poland
One day, a horrible dragon appeared in Cracovia. He was very mean. Everyday, people had to give him lots of animals: sheeps, cows, horses. Many knight tried to beat the dragon, but they got killed or escaped. One day, a young boy named Skuba, which was a shoemaker, had a great idea. He got a ram's body and he filled it with sulfur. Then he laid it in front of the dragon's cave. A dragon spotted the ram and swallowed it. Then he felt a very spicy taste. He ran up to the Vistula river and drank water, until he exploded into pieces. Skuba made shoes out of dragon;'s skin and he gave it to the princess. The king then let him marry with the princess.
