When his older brother refuses to help, he takes her into his humble home and cares for her with his dogs. For seven days she does not awaken. When she awakens, she enlists the three dogs to help with her peculiar requests. She is gone by morning, leaving a blooming branch and a maiden for the younger shepherd, and a frozen-over house for the older shepherd. In this fairy tale, the theme is that good things will happen to those who do good. The style of this book is not lively. There are some somber, dark, and slightly violent portions. Although the larger portion of the book is not upbeat, the story ends on a positive note. Two brothers go hunting on the moors, one is very rich and the other very poor. The rich brother never does anything to help his poor younger brother. One day, the found a woman laying in the moor almost frozen to death, so the younger brother takes her to his home and tries to warm her and make her well. After a few days she gets better and sends each one of his three dogs to do tasks for her. She disappears and has a woman sent to his man to be his companion with his 2 dogs, because one of them was never seen again. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
