Once upon a time there lived a little girl named Lisa. She lived with her mom and dad. And they also lived with her grandmother, who loved to read fairy tales to her granddaughter—beautiful and magical ones. In Lisa's room there were many, many cabinets, and in each of them were many books.
Lisa was a very kind girl. And everything would have been fine, if not for one great sorrow—her eyes could not see, she was born blind. But despite this misfortune, she believed in miracles and dreamed very often. She had a cherished dream—even if just for a little while, even just once, to see her mom, dad, and grandmother—her whole family.
One evening, as usual, Lisa went to bed. Grandmother read her a bedtime story, tucked her granddaughter in, kissed her, and wished her good night. Lisa fell fast asleep.
And suddenly the whole room was illuminated by rays of bright light, the room became bright as if it were daytime. A Fairy Tale had come to visit the girl and lit up her room with a magic lantern.
She gently tugged Lisa by the shoulder and said:
Get up, Lisa, it's time for us to go!
What? Where are we going and how? I can't see anything!
Lisa was surprised.
Don't you want to start seeing?
Of course I do! My cherished wish is to see Mom, Dad, and Grandma! But is it even possible?
Everything is possible, you just have to want it very much! Let's fly!
What will we fly on?
Well, how about on this!
The Fairy Tale pointed toward a toy—a pink unicorn that her father had given the girl for her birthday. The Fairy Tale touched the toy with her magic lantern, and the unicorn came to life. It flapped its wings, picked up Lisa and the Fairy Tale, and soared upward.
They flew through the night sky, stars sparkled all around, and the moon lit their way.
And finally they arrived at the Moon. Before them stood a beautiful palace with golden windows. Surrounding the palace was a magnificent garden where different flowers bloomed and bright colorful long-tailed birds flew. The unicorn rushed to nibble grass because he was very hungry. Lisa ran to smell the flowers. And the Fairy Tale sat down on a stump and began searching for something in a magic book.
Lisa ran up to the Fairy Tale and asked:
What are you looking for?
I want to find the magic words that will help us restore your sight.
The Fairy Tale answered.
For a long time she turned page after page, and suddenly exclaimed:
I found it! You need to wait until morning and at dawn wash your face with lunar dew from all these flowers. The lunar dew is magical and your eyes will be able to see. Finally you will see your mom, dad, and grandmother.
The Fairy Tale said to Lisa.
Lisa couldn't wait for morning and didn't close her eyes all night.
Morning came, birds began to wake up on the Moon and sing their clear songs. Beautiful flowers bloomed and dew sparkled on their petals.
Lisa approached each flower, collected the dew in a crystal bowl, and washed her eyes. And suddenly light illuminated everything around her, before her she saw the Fairy Tale—a beautiful, lovely young woman with long wavy golden hair.
Can it be that I can see! There's so much that's interesting, amazing, and beautiful all around! Can it be that this isn't a dream and all this really happened to me?
The girl squeezed her eyes tightly shut and... woke up at home in her bed.
Mom, Dad, I can see! I can see, I'm healed!
Lisa shouted.
Mom, Dad, and Grandma ran into the room.
You're all so beautiful! This is exactly how I imagined you!
Lisa said.
That's the kind of magical story that happened to the girl Lisa. But was it really a Fairy Tale?
Read fairy tales, they teach us to believe in miracles!
