I think that I am a kid at heart and that is why I have these.
This is my all time favorite sad story. The reason I thouht it was so sad was not because she did not get the prince but because she would die because of it and it seemed would also lose her soul. But it did turn out ok in that way at the end.
This I think is sad because it shows you that you can't replace something with another thing that is not real. It doesn't matter what they look like. It is the substance and heart that counts. It was sad to the emperor.
The Lost Soul is actually a statue. The only thing that he had was the little bird and they had formed a bond. I thought it was the saddest thing when I first read it. You should not feel sad for Saki however as I read he was quite the devil.
This has to be the saddest, worst story about childhood and having a pony. The lessons you learn and what happens sometimes are just too much. We did have ponies later in the family of my grandfather like I had wanted but they were not mine. They could take care of themselves.
I really hadn't remembered that this story was by him also. I guess he was just good at sad stories and all to me and others. I could barely bear the idea of this story before. The little girl dies. I thought it was an angel that came to get her but I guess not.
My computer is acting up so much I can hardly type now.
