Princess Apolejka lives in a high tower. Since one hundred seventy six twisting stairs lead to her chamber, Apolejka really does not like going down to her garden. But one day she hears a song about her, sees a Prince, but when she runs down the stairs, instead of the Prince she finds a donkey standing next to the well…
