The Apple King

Once there was a king who owned a fine apple tree that no one else in the kingdom was allowed to touch. One day something terrible happens-worms invade all the apples on the tree! The king is outraged. He tries everything-bribes, force of arms, magic-to drive the worms away. But the worms refuse to leave. They are there for a purpose, as the king will soon find out. In a story that's as sweet and satisfying as a delicious red apple, a selfish king discovers that pleasure shared is pleasure multiplied.
