    MY TALE:
    Once upon a time, there was an ogre's marriage. The husband snored every night so the wife was very angry because she couldn't sleep. She decided to call her friend and she asked her:-What can I do to stop my husband snoring?-and her friend told her that there was a potion to eliminate snores. She went rapidly to buy the potion and she told her husband that it was a juice so he drank a drop of it. At night, he snored higher and his wife couldn't take it. Next day, she told it to her friend and this one said her that she didn't have more ideas. The ogre’s wife was thinking and had a new idea: she was going to take her best gown and put it to her husband while he was sleeping, it was very uncomfortable so he was going to stop snoring. At night, she tried it but he snored higher than last night, and she couldn't sleep again. She thought that it was a mischance: she was never going to sleep. Next morning, she was very angry so she decided to told it to her husband. She said:-You, simpleton, I'm very angry about you! You snore a lot all nights and I can't sleep!- He got very angry, his face turned red and he was all day screaming. At night, the house was in silence, he didn´t snore more, he only wanted to scream! From this moment his wife could sleep well so they were very happy.
