tired. Soon, she found a small
house. Inside, everything was
tiny! There were seven small
beds.
 Later, the owners came home. They were seven dwarfs. At first, they were surprised to

“Stay with us,” said one dwarf. “We will take care of you.”

Snow White smiled. She cleaned the house, cooked food, and sang cheerful songs. The dwarfs
became very happy.

But far away, the Queen found out Snow White was still alive. She became very angry. She
dressed up as an old woman and went to the dwarfs’ house.

“Try this apple,” said the old woman. It looked shiny and red.
