The Golden Girl and Mother Holle

Haiga says

Let's settle in and begin.

Once there was a kind girl who worked hard for her stepmother. One day, she fell into a magical well and met Mother Holle, who rewarded her for her kindness and hard work. Meanwhile, her lazy sister tried to do the same but learned that laziness brings its own troubles.

Originally a German tale — the German edition is on its way. Meanwhile you can enjoy it in English & Telugu.
