Cerita Dongeng Bahasa Inggris Anak Sebelum Tidur, The Kind-Hearted Bawang Putih and Bawang Merah

TRIBUNJATENG.COM - In a quiet village, there lived a kind-hearted girl named Bawang Putih.

She shared a home with her stepmother and stepsister, Bawang Merah.

After her mother passed away when she was just a baby, her father remarried.

Soon after, Bawang Merah was born. For a time, the family seemed complete.

However, tragedy struck again when her father passed away unexpectedly.

From that day forward, Bawang Putih's life changed drastically.

Her stepmother, who had once treated her kindly, turned cruel.

She favored her own daughter, Bawang Merah, and forced Bawang Putih to do all the household chores.

While Bawang Merah spent her days playing and dressing up, Bawang Putih worked tirelessly—cooking, cleaning, and doing all the heavy labor.

Despite the mistreatment, Bawang Putih remained gentle and patient, never complaining about her difficult life.

One morning, as Bawang Putih was washing clothes by the river, a strong current swept away one of her late mother’s favorite garments.

Alarmed, she ran along the riverbank, hoping to retrieve it.

She searched and searched until she came across a small wooden hut deep in the forest.

An old woman stepped out and greeted her with a warm smile.

"Are you looking for something, dear child?" the woman asked kindly.
