This story is about three brothers: Pedro, the Slow One; Pablo, the One Without Opinions; and Santiaguillo, the Thoughtful One. Pedro was fat, big, red in the face, drank in abundance and ate even more. Pablo was puny, skinny and short-tempered, and he never found anything that he liked. Santiaguillo was vivacious, cheerful, happy and so tiny that he almost fit in one of Pedro's boots. They lived happily with their father, but since they were already grown, their father announced to them that he no longer could continue to support them. He told them that he was getting old, and they should travel the world and find their fortune like he did in his youth. Pedro and Pablo, the two oldest siblings, were not sure what they had to do to survive since their father had fully supported them. Santiaguillo, the youngest in age and in size, was willing to go out into the world, find adventures and achieve his own fortune. In addition, he was excited to visit a king who needed help doing some things where many others had already failed. If anyone was able to help him, the King would give him 3 bags full of gold, and that man would marry his daughter, the princess. The King had also said that, if someone tried, but failed to do what he wanted, his ears would be cut off, and he would receive two hundred beatings with a stick. Will Santiaguillo and his brothers resolve the king's dilemma and receive, or not, his gifts?
