STORYTIME: The Princess and the Witch -- Part 3

...The princess entered her castle with the red ball in her hands. She left it on a chair in her room and got ready for dinner. After dinner, she read some books in the castle´s library and then headed off to her room to get ready for bed. As she was drifiting off to sleep she remembered the red ball and quickly sat up in bed. She looked at the chair and there she saw the red ball, not moving, just as an ordinary ball should be. She closed her eyes and went to sleep. The bouncing sound woke her. It was still night; she turned to the chair and saw that the ball was gone! Her door was open and she raced down the stairs following the sounds. She barely saw the red ball bouncing out the castle door. The princess ran to follow it, the ball quickly bounced into the forest. The princess couldn´t stop following the ball! She entered the dark forest and raced after it. Finally she caught up to it, as it stopped bouncing and rolled, stopping at the old lady´s feet...
