Csalimese (Hungarian folk tale)

(Note: When children are eager for someone to tell them a story, and they are in the mood for a joke, use such stories to lure them into the curious and eager children.)

There was a poor woman in the world, she had an egg.

He took this egg up the hill and rolled it down... He took it up the hill and rolled it down... He took it up the hill and rolled it down... He took it up the hill and rolled it down...
