In the first tale, three laborers vied for ownership of a mill as the tired old owner set a condition: whoever brings him the finest horse would claim the mill, while the miller would live under the new owner's care. The two older laborers, considering the youngest a burden, abandoned him in a cave, but a meeting with a cat set him on a path of adventures.

In the enchanting story of the "Forest House," a wood-cutter's daughter becomes the savior of a cursed prince through her compassion for animals, breaking the spell and leading to a joyous wedding celebration, while her selfish sisters learn a valuable lesson in empathy and kindness.

В одной сказке трое рабочих работали на мельнице и соревновались, чтобы получить ее от старого хозяина. Во волшебной сказке "Лесной дом", дочь дровосека спасает проклятого короля, проявляя доброту к животным и приводя к свадебному празднику. 

2) "Храбрый Портняжка" Братья Гримм / "The Brave Tailor" Brothers Grimm - Мелодия – Д034389-90 Vinyl, LP, Mono USSR 1973 - A skilled tailor, known for killing seven flies with a single blow, embarks on a remarkable adventure where he outwits a giant, defeats giants in combat, traps a unicorn and a wild boar, marries a princess, and ultimately becomes a king, all while cleverly avoiding attempts on his life by pretending to be a fearsome hero in his sleep.

Однажды портной убивает семь мух одним ударом и отправляется в мир, где он побеждает гиганта, освобождает принцессу, убивает двух гигантов, ловит единорога и дикого кабана, и в конечном итоге становится королем.

3) "Жили-были Ёжики" Братья Гримм / "Once upon a time there were Hedgehogs" The Brothers Grimm Мелодия – С50—07963-4, Series: Сказка За Сказкой Vinyl, LP, Repress, Stereo, Pink Labels USSR 1981 - "Once upon a time there were hedgehogs ...". Here you will meet again with the plots and characters of several fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm - this time in the retelling of the artist of the Moscow Drama and Comedy Theater on Taganka Veniamin Smekhov, a man with great humor and imagination.

Recorded in 1976.
