Story 02 (n)
Our German baby is so fat because it loves bread. It is the one thing that makes it happy just right after beer. Babies can't really talk, so whenever it sees a loaf of bread it says: thing, thing, thing. They pack the bread into special baby-proof paper. It's pink paper as it needs to appeal to its target group. Back at home, the whole house of the baby is actually made out of bread. Needless to say that its parents have to rebuild the house from scratch every day.

Story 03 (f)
The German fairy is so powerful, she can create whole worlds with her magic. She also created this one which makes her the mother of our world. We have a German word for that which you won't have to remember: Mutter Erde. It's actually pretty easy for her to create a new world. All she got to do is to have an idea. You knew that ideas were powerful, didn't you? Today, our German fairy has the idea of creating a new kind of door: One walks through that magic door and instantly knows all languages on earth.
