BR 2-15: The Peach Boy

"Give me a dumpling and I'll help you fight the ogres."
 
Of course, you know this story. English title is "The peach boy", but it is called "Momotarou" in Japan. This story tells us that being brave is important!!! Long time ago, there were a old man and a old woman. When she went to a river, a big peach was floating on the water. They cut the big peach, and then a babt appeared from the inside.The boy was grown up by them. He was called "peach boy". One day people in the village worried about ogres. He decided to go to a place where ogres live. During he was going to the place, he met three animals, dog, monkey, and pheasant. He gave them a dumpling that was given by the old man. Peach boy and animals beat them!! And people in the village could live fortunately.
