In the first story, a couple wishes for a child, even if it is the size of a bean. This Tom Thumb like child comes to them and then goes through a few tough days before he can lead his parents to untold riches.

In the second story, Francisco is a young man living with his mom. He fishes to provide for them both. One night, he hears the ocean calling to him in the moonlight. When he gets there, he falls asleep in his boat and is rescued by a water nymph. Will he stay in the underwater palace or will his mother's love bring him home? Only the old man of the sea can tell.
