to the lake and play. While she was working the sky became higher and higher. But the girl didn't pay attention to it. And when she noticed it she stood on her toes to get her things but she couldn't get them. Then she tried to jump. She jumped several times but in vain. She was very upset and began to cry. The mother heard the daughter's crying and came to help her. But she also couldn't get the comb and the necklace. The sky became very high and the golden things were in it. The strong wind blew and the cloud appeared and the girl and her mum didn't see the comb and the necklace at all. It the evening they were sitting in the yard and they were very sad. But suddenly the daughter looked up and saw her golden comb - the moon and many stars around it. "Mum, look up," cried the girl in surprise. "My comb became more beautiful. And my necklace is brighter in the sky." And her mother said, "Now a lot of people can admire your comb and necklace." And the mother and her daughter went to bed happy.
