A very lazy giant spent his days sleeping. He only woke up when he was hungry. But he was so lazy that even the thought of walking tired him out. So, he hired two dwarfs – Step and March. Whenever he shouted, “Step! March!”, it was their duty to start moving his legs, one after the other. That’s how Lazybones the Giant managed to walk all the way to his grandmother’s house at the other end of the forest, where she waited for him with a tray of his favorite cookies. But what happened when the two dwarfs quit, offended that they never got even a single crumb of those delicious cookies?
