Help Find My Fairytale!
Hi All,
As a child, I remember one fairytale in particular. I have scoured the internet to find it, but can't even get a trace of it...
From what I remember, there is a King who set up a bunch of epic tests, and everyone goes to the castle to attempt to beat them. A young boy is one of them, but on his way he meets a man with very big ears. Most people call him ugly, but he decides to be his friend and the travel together. He then meets another man with a large appetite. People think him useless, but the boy thinks differently, and they continue....
I remember the boy meeting many other strange people, but not the specifics...
Eventually they make it to the castle, and the tests are given to them. One test requires them to eat 100 courses of food in ten minutes, or something...and so the hungry man does it. Another test is to find a pin drop, and the man with the large ears does.
In the end, everyone that seemed strange actually has a special talent. And the boy becomes king...or gets the princess...I forget...
Anyone have any idea? Thanks so much!
