The Golden Goose by Dick King-Smith
A kind but simple young man comes into possession of a marvelous goose whose feathers are pure gold; when greedy villagers try to pluck them they find themselves mysteriously stuck fast and become chained together behind the bird. The ridiculous procession grows as more would-be thieves join the line, and when the tangled chain reaches the royal court it finally draws laughter from a gloomy princess who has never laughed before. The hero’s good nature and the unexpected hilarity win him wealth, status, and the princess’s hand, proving that kindness and a bit of luck can overturn cruelty and greed.
