George with the Goat
A quick tale from Czechia (Bohemia).
Icarus
The Greek myth of Daedalus and Icarus.
The Goose Girl
Another wonderful story from the Brothers Grimm. Because it's an original Grimm story, beware of a few things that are a bit icky (a dead horse's head talking and a terrible fate for the imposter). But it is a fun story and the basis for one of my favorite books.
The Swineherd
A fun short story from Hans Christian Andersen. The ending is not quite what you will expect.
Beowulf
The oldest story written in English. It is a story of fighting monsters and a great hero.
