Uh! She is a very pretty girl. Okay, I am going to make her my friend. The beetle grabbed Thumbelina and flew into the forest. How about that? She is my friend. Isnt she very pretty? The beetle bragged about her to his other beetle friends, but they all thought that she was an odd creature. What? She only has two legs but has no wings like we do. It is really strange.
With his friends making fun of him, the beetle began to dislike Thumbelina. He went away with his friends, leaving the girl alone in the branches. She spent many lonely days eating tree fruits and flowers. Dear God, please send me to my mother. Thumbelina wandered around the forest shivering from cold and hunger.
After some time, it began to snow. Thumbelina was looking for a place to take shelter when she finally saw a twinkling light. I am Thumbelina. Please allow me to take a rest in your house. A field mouse woman greeted the girl warmly saying, Oh my dear, please come in.
The field mouse woman loved Thumbelina as if she were her own daughter. One day, a rich mole from a neighboring burrow came to the house for a holiday. He said, She is a really pretty girl. It would be good if she became the wife of my son. The field mouse woman was very happy about what the rich mole said. But Thumbelina did not like that haughty fellow. Yet she was unable to reject what the field mouse woman wanted.
Thumbelina was taking a walk sadly in an underground passage, which was actually the house of the mole. At that time, she found a swallow that had fallen on the ground. Ah, poor swallow. Please gain your strength. Thumbelina nursed the swallow earnestly. Finally, spring came, and the swallow gained strength and was about to leave the underground passage. He said, Dear Thumbelina, come with me to the flower country where there is nothing but sun and flowers.
