over the world. They have several things in common:
• The beginning of the story starts with 'Once upon a
time ...'or a similar phrase.
They feature ordinary people e.g. a woodcutter,
a fisherman.
They deal with human problems e.g. family, poverty.
They contain extraordinary luck e.g. finding money
or supernatural elements e.g. a goose that lays
golden eggs.
They contain life lessons, morals or values that are
important to that culture, e.g. share your good fortune
with others.

I'd like to describe picture number three. in the picture we can see a girl playing the piano. The girl is in her teens. she's got long straight dark hair. she's wearing a blue blouse and light blue jeans.
she's sitting on the chair in front of the piano. she's in Music classroom, I suppose. there is a green plant on the piano. there is a bookcase with lots of books next to the girl. The girl is looking at her hands and the piano-keys. She is trying to do her best. I like this picture because it reminds me about my music classes. In my childhood I learnt to play the guitar.
