Telaga Warna (A Folktale from West Java)
The king of a famous
kingdom in Cipanas, West Java, is very wise man. He has a beautiful daughter.
The king and queen love their daughter so much.
But all their love is not enough for the princess. Even though they give her
everything, she is not happy. All the jewelries that they have are not enough
for her. She is not satisfied with her gorgeous look either.
The princess then has an idea. She plans to put all the jewelries that they
have in every single hair in her head. She wants to be the most beautiful girl
in the world.

The Fox and the Cat
A
fox was boasting to a cat of its clever devices for escaping its enemies.
"I
have a whole bag of tricks," he said, "which contains a hundred ways
of escaping my enemies."
"I
have only one," said the cat. "But I can generally manage with
that."
Just
at that moment they heard the cry of a pack of hounds coming towards them, and
the cat immediately scampered up a tree and hid herself in the boughs.
