| The King And The People Of Gotham - Story |
A long time ago people did not like their king to visit their villages. After a king had walked on their land, they thought it belonged to him for ever. For this reason, the people of Gotham once turned king John away. He was angry with them, and sent his officers to punish them for their rudeness. The people thought of a plan to make the King feel sorry for them. When the officers reached Gotham, they saw many strange things. Some men were trying to kill a fish by putting it into a bowl of water. Others were rolling their vegetables down a hill, so that they could find their own way to market. There were men building a wall round a tree so that birds singing in the tree could not escape. Everyone was doing something foolish. The officers thought that Gotham was a village of fools. And the people were never punished.
