The Two Sisters of Arendelle

Far away in the north, there was a beautiful kingdom called Arendelle.

Two princesses lived in the kingdom.

The older sister was Elsa, and the younger one was Anna.

They loved each other deeply since they were little.

Elsa had a magical power.

She could create snow and ice with her hands.

She and Anna often built snowmen, skated, and played in the hall.

“Look, Anna!” said Elsa. “Let’s build a snowman!”

She waved her hands, and snowflakes sparkled in the air.

They laughed and danced in the snow.

But one time, Elsa used too much power by accident.

The ice hit Anna’s head.

Anna fell to the ground.

Elsa was terrified.

The king and queen ran in and carried Anna.

They took her to the mountain trolls.

The trolls used magic to heal Anna.

But they erased Anna’s memory of the magic.

From that day, Elsa stayed locked in her room.

She was afraid of hurting anyone again.

Anna often knocked on the door: “Elsa, do you want to build a snowman?”

But Elsa never answered.

Time slowly passed.

The two sisters grew up.

Anna was still cheerful and full of life.

Elsa became quiet and lonely.

Winter passed and spring came, but the castle gates stayed closed.

They both waited for the day—

The day when the gates of Arendelle would finally open again.
