Thumbelina was a little girl. She was called Thumbelina              because she was as tall as a thumb. Her teeth              were white and bright. She was very thin too. So, her mother made thick clothes               with three layers to save her from the thorns of vines               . She used to give her thick broth                   after a bath. Now, Thumbelina is three           . She thinks Math is fun to learn.  years old.  She has learnt numbers up to thirty.
