Can you really make a delicious, hearty soup using nothing but a plain, rusty metal nail? A tired, hungry traveler is about to prove that you can! When he stops at the home of a very stingy and grumpy old woman, she refuses to share even a tiny crumb of her food. But the clever traveler has a trick up his sleeve. He drops a single nail into a pot of boiling water and promises to make a magical, mouth-watering soup. He just needs a little bit of flour, and maybe a tiny bit of meat, and perhaps some potatoes to make it perfect! Before the old woman knows it, she is helping him cook a magnificent feast. This classic, funny folktale is a brilliant lesson in cleverness, sharing, and the magic of working together.
