CapriUni, that is a beautiful story about the silvery cobwebs! Thank you. My grandma used to read The Golden Cobwebs to us out of a book she used as a school "marm." Sara Cone Bryant, author of the book, "How to tell stories to children" said she got it from someone who'd heard it in the "mother tongue" form someone from Germany. This is the first time I've ever heard a different version of it.

When I was a co-leader of Girl Scouts in Connecticut, I read it to them one year. One of them was thrilled to find it, in poem form, in a book at her parochial school. She brought me a copy of it, but I cannot find it, right now. It was well done.

Amergin, are you alright?:-)
