This story is about Clever Katya.

It is a fairy tale from Russia.

This wonderful fairy tale is about an intelligent girl with the name Katya. The Czar of Russia got out of his couch when he saw a farmer consuming some bread. Since he was hungry, he asked the farmer if he could have some bread. When the Czar took a bite of the bread, he thought it was the most srumptious bread he has ever tasted. The Czar wanted to know who baked the bread. The farmer told him that his daughter, Kayta. The czar was amazed and he made a decision to marry her and brought her to the castle. She made him promise that she will take home something she loves the most in the castle if he was angry with her before she was married. They lived happily in the castle. After a year, the Czar quarrelled with Katya and told her to leave the castle. She locked him in a chest when he was sleeping and brought it home. He was surprised when he thought she had kidnapped him. Katya reminded the Czar about the promise he made. He was very delighted.
