A VOYAGE TO LILLIPUT: Gulliver’s Travels: A Voyage to Lilliput tells the story of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship’s surgeon who is shipwrecked on a strange island called Lilliput, where the people are only six inches tall. At first, Gulliver is captured and tied down by the tiny inhabitants, but his gentle behavior helps him gain their trust. He becomes useful to the Emperor, especially by capturing the enemy fleet of the neighboring island, Blefuscu.
Although Gulliver is rewarded and given his freedom, political jealousy and fear lead to a secret plot against him. When he learns that he will be punished, he escapes to Blefuscu. Eventually, he finds a boat, leaves the land of tiny people, and returns safely to England, wiser and more distrustful of power and rulers.
THE PRINCESS ON THE GLASS HILL: The Princess on the Glass Hill tells the story of Cinderlad, a poor and mocked youngest son who bravely guards his father’s meadow and secretly captures three magical horses. Later, a princess will marry the man who can ride up a steep glass hill and claim golden apples. While proud princes fail, Cinderlad appears in copper, silver, and gold armor on different days, riding higher each time. In the end, he reaches the top, reveals his true identity, and wins the princess and half the kingdom, proving that courage and humility lead to true greatness.
THE STORY OF PRINCE AHMED AND THE FAIRY PARIBANOU: The Story of Prince Ahmed and the Fairy Paribanou tells of three princes sent by their father, the Sultan, to travel the world and find rare wonders, with the promise that the one who brought back the most extraordinary object would marry Princess Nouronnihar. Prince Ahmed returns with a magical apple that can cure any illness and saves the princess’s life, but the Sultan judges that all three brothers contributed equally and refuses to choose among them.
Later, Prince Ahmed discovers a hidden palace and meets the Fairy Paribanou, who becomes his wife. Through wisdom, courage, and magical trials, Prince Ahmed proves his virtue and devotion. The story explores fate, love beyond human limits, and the balance between power, loyalty, and true happiness.
