The Elves and the shoemaker

There lived a kind shoemaker and his wife. Times were hard and they became very, very poor. One day, he put the leather on the table and he was going to make shoes the other day. But when he wake up the next morning, the leather had already been turned into a fancy shoes. That was by two little elves!
