The shoes pleased him so much that he paid 
more for them than usual. The shoemaker was 
able to purchase the leather for two pairs of 
shoes with the money.
He cut them out at night. The next morning 
he was about to set to work with fresh courage.
He had no need to do so. When he got up, 
the shoes were already made. Buyers gave him 
enough money to buy leather for four pairs of 
shoes. 
Again the following morning the shoemaker 
found four pairs of shoes were made. And so 
it went. What he cut out in the evening was 
fi nished by the morning. He soon had his 
honest independence again and at last became 
a wealthy man.
One evening not long before Christmas the 
man said to his wife, “What if we were to stay 
up tonight to see who lends us this helping 
hand?”

The woman liked the idea and lit a candle.
They hid themselves in a corner of the room 
behind some hanging clothes and watched. 
When it was midnight, two little naked men 
came and sat down by the shoemaker’s table.
They began to stitch, sew, and hammer so 
skillfully and quickly that the shoemaker could 
not stop watching. They did not stop until all 
was done. Then they ran quickly away.
The next morning the woman said, “The 
little men have made us rich. We really must 
show we are grateful for it. They run about 
and have nothing on. They must be cold. I 
will make them little shirts, coats, vests, and 
trousers. And I will knit them each a pair of 
stockings. You make them two little pairs of 
shoes.”
“I shall be very glad to do it,” said the man.
When everything was ready, the shoemaker 
and his wife laid their presents on the table.
Then they hid to see how the little men would 
behave.

At midnight, the little men came bounding 
in and wanted to get to work. They did not 
fi nd any leather cut out, only the pretty little 
pieces of clothing.
They were at fi rst astonished and then 
delighted. They put on the beautiful clothes 
and sang:
“Now we are boys so fi ne to see,
Why should we longer cobblers be?”
They danced and skipped and leaped over 
chairs and benches. At last they danced out of 
door. From that time forth, they came no more.
But as long as the shoemaker lived, all went 
well with him and all his efforts prospered.

Tom Thumb
Originally Named 
Thumbling
There was once a poor peasant who sat in 
the evening by the hearth and poked the fi re.
His wife sat and spun thread.
“How sad it is that we have no children!” the 
man said. “All is so quiet. In other houses it is 
noisy and lively.” 
“Yes,” replied the wife. “Even if we had only 
one and it was only as big as a thumb, I should 
be quite satisfi ed. We would still love it with 
all our hearts.”
Now it happened that the woman fell ill.
After seven months she gave birth to a child 
who was perfect but no longer than a thumb.
