The city and

people had

everything they

needed.

Every week

there was a market

where you could buy anything.

One week an old beggar woman arrived.

She set up a stall in

the market.

She offered to sell 12 books that contained all the wisdom in the world.

She offered them to the king. He

laughed and said they had all they would ever need.

What they didn’t have they could buy when it was

needed.

What would

you do?

The old woman

left.

She took the books with her.

The king had a

dream.

The people in the dream were happy.

The old woman came back the next year.

She offered the 6 remaining books.Still the people laughed at her.

“But the world changes.” Said the woman.So she left.

What would

you do?

The king had another dream. The people were even happier.

Times were not so good the next year. The old woman came back.

She only had 3 books left.

We can’t afford

them said the king.

The king met the

old woman.

He bought the one book.

He shared the wisdom the

book contained with the people.

Things started to get better but its hard.

What would you do if you were the

king?
