A kind lady planted a corn given by a witch to have children. A tiny little girl came out of its flower. She named her Thumbelina. One night, a toad carried away Thumbelina as a bride for her son. Thumbelina did not want to marry the ugly toad and escaped with the help of a butterfly. It was winter. Thumbelina took shelter in the house of a mouse. The mouse suggested her to marry his rich neighbour, the mole. But Thumbelina refused. One day, she found an injured swallow and nursed him back to health. The swallow heard her story. He asked Thumbelina to sit on his back and flew away to the warm land. The swallow flew over to a huge white flower and set Thumbelina down upon it. There, Thumbelina saw a tiny flower fairy, the son of flower king. They both fell in love with each other and got married.
