So they gave him the name "Momotaro", and took very good care of him. When Momotaro ate one bowl of rice, he grew a little bigger, and when he ate two bowls of rice, he grew twice as much bigger! He grew extremely quickly, and he became amazingly strong. He immediately remembered whatever he was taught, and helped them with all their work, both at home and on the mountain. "This is a very special child", thought the old lady and the old man, and they finally came to love him very much.
