He put his wings on her feet




               The princess never went to a ball because her feet were ugly. The shoemaker's fairy

               received a request to make shoes for the princess. The shoemaker fairy was always
               confident because he was famous for making the most beautiful and unexpected shoes
               in the world. He made the first pair of shoes with the softest silk in the world,
               but princess’ ugly feet broke through them. The second shoe he made was the strongest

               leather in the world, but was crushed by the princess' ugly feet.


               The shoemaker fairy sat in the moonlight and thought why his heart was so broken. Soon
               he realized that it wasn’t because the best shoes in the world he made were broken, but

               because the disappointed princess’ sad face kept stabbing his heart.


               The shoemaker fairy made a big decision and bravely flew toward the fairy forest, where
               all kinds of jewels were buried.



               The shoemaker fairy thought that if he made shoes by jewel then gave them to the
               princess, she would become the owner of the world’s most beautiful shoes and be
               invited to every ball in the world.



               He flew and flew countless days and nights into the fairy forest, but he found nothing in
               the cave of gems.



               The fairy who was guarding the cave of gems told the shoemaker fairy. The jewels
               of fairies are the glimmering of moonlight on the wings left over when the fairy died.
               The shoemaker fairy watched his wings twirl beautifully on the wall of the cave in the
               moonlight. And then he made up his mind quickly. The shoemaker fairy thought he was

               very lucky that his wings were made a jewelof moonlight, and that he could make shoes
               for the princess.


               When he finished making the shoes, he took them in his arms and tried to fly up

               to the princess as soon as possible, but he fell on the rock. But the fairy jumped
               up and started running for her. The shoemaker fairy who was running with a
               happy smile as a flying bird, followed the moon all the way, shining his jewelery
               shoes brightly.
