English Folklore

A collection of folklore from England with morals for kids and adult. Feel free to share them.

England is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. It shares land borders with Wales to its west and Scotland to its north. The Irish Sea lies northwest of England and the Celtic Sea to the southwest. England is separated from continental Europe by the North Sea to the east and the English Channel to the south. The country covers five-eighths of the island of Great Britain, which lies in the North Atlantic, and includes over 100 smaller islands, such as the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight. It is the largest country of the British Isles. 

Once upon a time there lived a boy in England named Jack. He lives with his mother in a village. Their lives are very poor. Until one day they were forced to sell Jack's favorite cow to buy wheat. That day Jack went to the market to sell cows while leading his favorite cow. 

A mother hen is incubating her eggs. One by one the eggs hatch into yellow chicks. However, there is one of her children who is gray, not yellow like her siblings. The mother hen felt very surprised to see her children's gray fur.

Morgan is a man who likes to sing. Every time he has free time, he spends singing. Morgan was convinced that his voice was beautiful, but no one praised the beauty of Morgan's voice.

Guliver is a young doctor who loves to sail. Once, Gulliver went sailing. But bad weather approached the ship Gulliver, so the ship was hit by a storm and stranded on an island. Gulliver also fainted.

The Smart Jack
Once upon a time on the Top of Mount Cornwall, there lived a cruel giant. The giant named Cormoran lives in a cave. The villagers were very worried about the giant's existence. Because giants always bother humans, not only do they take livestock, but humans also become their prey.
