Tapescript
Paris was a young prince from the city of Troy. One day, he decided to visit the Greek city of Sparta, so he got in a ship and sailed there with his men.
Queen Helen and the King of Sparta welcomed Paris. Later at a dinner, Queen Helen and Paris fell in love with each other.
The King of Sparta had to go away from Sparta for a few days. After he left, Paris took Helen to his ship. His men also stole a lot of gold from Sparta.
They sailed back to Troy. Everyone in Troy loved Helen because she was so beautiful. But the King of Sparta was very angry, so he asked many of the other Greek kings to help him fight Troy. Many Greek ships carried the large Greek army to Troy. They wanted to get Helen back and punish the Trojans. And so the Trojan War began.
