Easy Greek short stories for beginners

Greek has less graded reading available than the big Western European languages, and the alphabet stops many learners before they reach a single story. Once the letters click, though, Greek is satisfying to read: you will spot roots behind hundreds of English words, and the stress accent is marked in writing.
