The Legend of the Wawel's Dragon in Cracow

A long time ago , high on a hill in Cracow a king with his queen, princess and his servants lived.

They were very worried because a terrible dragon attacked their city.

The king was angry because the dragon ate sheep and goats. He needed a brave man who kill the monster.

He promised to marry his daughter to the man who kill the dragon.

A lot of knights fought the beast but they couldn’t kill it.

One day, a shoemaker called Dratewka came to the castle and told the king about his plan.

He wanted some sulphur, a needle, thread and the skin of the sheep.

The man worked on his plan and put the sulphur into the sheepskin.

Next day, a hungry dragon went out of the cave and ate the sheep. The people waited what happened.

The dragon felt very bad and wanted to drink a lot of water. His stomach became very big like a balloon and it finally burst. 

The people were very happy because the dragon was dead. Dratewka married the princess Wanda and they lived long and happily.
