There once was a girl who lived in the village of Berkshire. Her name was Lucy and she was obsessed with ballet.

One day she was going to the market to buy some vegetables and meat for dinner.

When she entered the market, an old woman stood at the counter waiting for customers.

"May I please purchase some vegetables and meat for 8 shillings?" Lucy asked.

"Why of course." The woman answered.

Lucy went on her way home from the market. Now, Lucy lived in a poor family, with her brother and her mom.

"Thank you for the food." Her mother thanked her.

"Mum, we only have 3 shillings left." Lucy warned.

"Oh dear." Her mother answered.

At dinner, the siblings talked about what they did that day.

"I learned to throw the ball see." John explained.

"Well, I learned my plie." Lucy bragged.

The next morning, after Lucy woke up and ate her porridge, she went to the forest. Since John told her the story of the Berkshire fairy, she wanted to find it.

Lucy ventured deep into the Berkshire forest.

Crackle! Snap! Were the sounds she heard in the forest.

"Who's there?" A voice called.

It was the fairy. Before Lucy could say anything, she shrunk to a small size.
