Lettice was an eight year old little girl. She lived in a little gloomy village called Bibidi, in a house in
the middle of the forest, with her two grandparents, how were tall with white hair and very old.
Lettice always helped her grandparents, she cooked, went to the shop, cleaned the house, etc.

She was a pretty and funny girl. She was small and thin, she had long curly blond hair and blue
eyes. Her skin was white like clouds .She has positive, patient and smart.

It was a normal day, Lettice put on her make-up, she made breakfast, she got dressed, and went
to the village to buy food, but this day was different because when she went shopping, next to the
shop she spotted an enormous house. This house belonged to a rich family. Lettice went shopping
and when she was going back home, she stopped to talk to the new three girls of the rich family
Darby, Kelly and Hana but instead of shopping the tree girls said to Lettice,

“What are you wearing? “Hana laughed

“Those are not clothes “added Darby

“OH, came on girls don’t laugh at her she`s only that one dress” said Kelly

When Lettice went back home, her grandparents were waiting for her. They talked for a long time
and in the end they said,

“Lettice your parents are alive” said grandmother

“And if you want to know who they are, you have to investigate” said her grandfather sadly

Lettice went all around the village but she didn’t find anything. The only house in the village that
she hadn’t investigated was the enormous house of the rich family.

Was Lettice going to enter in the house? Lettice asked all people in the village, if they knew about
her parents, but nobody knew anything

Then, Lettice finally decided to enter. While she was going to enter, she felt scare but happy and a
little afraid. She went in and talked to the three girl’s rich parents. She felt more comfortable and
after hours and hours of sweets and teas Lettice discovered that they were her parents. At the
beginning she felt confused but she started to jump happily. After this she moved to the big
mansion and lived with them forever.
