Once upon a time, there was a king who had a peculiar habit: he liked everything big. He built a huge palace, filled with huge tables, huge chairs, and a huge bed.
Every morning, the king had to get down from his tall and big bed, and the servants had to use a pulley to lower him down.
The king would sit at the huge table to eat breakfast, and he would impatiently shout, “Hurry up! Hurry up! Bring the bread!” “Hurry up! Hurry up! Bring the fruit!”
The servants placed the bread on a seesaw, and one servant would jump on the other end, “Whoosh!” The bread flew up onto the big table. They did the same with apples, pears, and peaches. One by one, the fruits flew up onto the big table.
The king then ordered the servants to bring the knives and forks. The knife was too heavy, and the servants had to lift it with great effort, then use a crane with a large magnet to lift the knife and fork onto the big table.
After breakfast, how did the king get down from the big chair? The servants used the pulley to lower him down again.
After eating, the king wanted to take a walk outside. The palace was so big, how could he get out? The servants put roller skates on the king, and some pushed, while others pulled, helping him out of the palace.
The king’s garden was even bigger. How could he walk around it? The servants tied a sail to the king. “Whoosh!” As the wind blew, the king in roller skates glided quickly. The servants followed behind, panting heavily.
When the king got tired of playing, he went home to take a bath. His bathtub was also very, very big. The servants carried bucket after bucket of water to fill the tub, and then they lowered the king into the bathtub. The king, in the big bathtub, was like a little fish, sometimes sinking, sometimes floating.
After the bath, the servants had to use the pulley to lift the king onto the bed to sleep.
You see! How interesting is a day in the life of a king who likes big things!
