NAME:
Once upon a time there was a little black doll, who lived in a beautiful house with Mariazinha. The two played all the time, and even slept together when they were tired.
All the other toys slept elsewhere, as Mariazinha always wanted her doll with her. But what she didn't know was that little dolls didn't sleep like little girls, all that time, without seeing the outside world. They were different from real girls and boys in a lot of ways.
Even so, he taught his favorite doll everything he learned from Mom: bathing, brushing teeth, changing clean clothes, and everything else.
That day, when she went to sleep for a while after lunch, she explained to the little black doll that she shouldn't go up to the window alone:
– The window is very dangerous! The child may fall outside and never come home. Dad said there needs to be grown-up people around whenever we want to go to the window.
Mariazinha saw that the little doll understood everything very well, as always. So he slept peacefully...
The little black doll also started to sleep, but… A different, strong and interesting voice came through the window bringing something new she didn't know:
– Greengrocer, greengrocer!
What is that thought. Mariazinha, who always knew everything, was asleep and couldn't tell you anything about greengrocers, who must be new and sensational beings! She needed to see!
Maybe that's it: an all green guy!
Or maybe this: someone coming out of the green like that.
It could also be one of these: I had never seen one.
– Greengrocer, greengrocer!
To go or not go just a little bit at the window? The doubt quickly passed and soon she was there, trying to look at everything. She didn't want to fall, but it was hard to see. It went up just a little more and tibum! Down there!
Luckily, the greengrocer was passing by just in time, and she fell on top of the fluffy vegetables in her big basket. She was so light that he didn't even notice and continued walking along the sidewalks with her singing:
– Greengrocer, greengrocer!
He passed through several streets where the little black doll had never gone, farther and farther...
So the greengrocer decided to return home, as it was already late. He entered through the dark garage, not seeing the scared little doll that was there. And climbed the stairs to get home, dropping the basket on the floor.
The little black doll began to cry, she was so afraid of that strange and dark place. Falling out of the window like that had been a big mistake, and Mariazinha wasn't going to like having been disobeyed at all. Then he cried and cried even more, without any comfort...
None?
A kitten that was passing by heard that sore crying and felt very sorry for the little doll. He tried to make fun of her to smile, but it didn't work.
– So, what can I do for you?
– I don't know, I just went to look at the window a little, without knowing it. She told me not to go alone, and now I've lost my beauty!
- Maybe I can help. Cats roam the night, and if you tell me what your house is like, maybe I'll find it.
- It's a beautiful white one, with blue windows, and a little girl inside, who must be very sad right now.
And so, the cat went out on the streets at night, looking for the right house. Searched, searched and...
He found that beautiful white one, with blue windows, and a beautiful little girl who cried a lot.
-Let's go get your little black doll that fell in the greengrocer's basket!
And there they both went.
When they arrived, it was that hug! All the crying passed and the two promised themselves never to part again. They returned home together, but when it was time to say goodbye to the cat, they were so sorry that they invited him to live with them in their beautiful house. He really liked the idea.
Thus, the story ends with everyone happy, deserving in the end a very big point of joy
