Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful princess in a big castle.
One day, her father, the king, gave her a golden ball as a birthday present.
"Happy birthday, my daughter." "Thank you, father." The princess loved this golden ball. She started to spend all her time playing with it in the garden.
One day, she went out with her ball and started to play with it, tossing it around.
The princess came next to a little pond and kept on playing with the ball.
Right at that moment, she could not catch the ball after she tossed it in the air and the ball started to roll away.
"My ball!" The princess ran after her golden ball, but the ball got faster and faster.
Finally, the ball fell in the pond and sank into the deep waters.
"Oh, no!" The princess sat down next to the pond and desperately started to cry.
"My beautiful golden ball! How am I going to bring it back?" Suddenly, she heard a voice.
