Tailor Thread
In the little town of Trajdarajda there lived Tailor Thread. One day he was told by a Gypsy Woman that he would become a king. He set off to meet his fate. On the way he met the Scarecrow and they decided to travel together. In the end they came to a city where it always rained. The Princess promised her hand and kingdom to the person who could prevent the disaster. Tailor Thread saw that the rain kept falling because the needle of a tall castle tower had torn a hole in a huge rain cloud and kept it over the city. He ordered all the ladders to be brought there, took a needle and thread, climbed the ladders and sew the hole in the cloud. At last, the sun came out over the city and as his reward Tailor Thread married the Princess and became King.
