He rushed headlong down the path he had come, at each step fearing that he would feel a hand laying on his shoulder. It was not until he had left the last trees behind him and was standing on the open plain, that he dared to look around. Then he thought that a figure in white was still standing there, waving her arms to and fro.

Andrew Lang's series of fairytale books have been considered by many as having provided some of the best fundamental reading for children since the late 19th and 20th centuries. The stories are not original, since they almost without exception were passed down orally. But they are told using old, rather than modernized language.
Poor little Koma was left alone, not knowing in the least what to do. Even the attention paid him by the princess, who was delighted with his charming ways, did not console him. But there was no use in fighting against fate, for he could only wait to see what would turn up.
Read this book for many tales of creatures and objects such as a magical trunk. It is amazing!
