A king had a set of twenty flowerpots. It was the finest and rarest of its kind in the world. The king was very proud of his rare collection. One day one of his officers broke a flowerpot by accident. The king was angry. He passed death sentence on the officer. But before the man was put to death, an old man came to know about it. He went to the king's court and said,"I know the art of repairing a broken flowerpot. Once I have repaired it, it will look its original self."
The king felt very happy to hear the claim of the old man. He showed the old man the collection of his flowerpots and said, "Here are nineteen flowerpots. One flowerpot from the set of twenty is broken. Repair one flowerpot and I'll pay you whatever you ask for." The old man raised his stick and broke all the nineteen flowerpots.
The king was red with anger. He cried out, "You idiot! what have you done?" The old man coolly replied,"I have done my duty. Each of these flowerpots would have taken one human life. Now you can take only one life, and that is mine."
The old man's wisdom and boldness pleased the king and he forgave the old man and the officer too.
The moral of this story is that things are made for man, man is not made for things.

There was once a king who had to have everything bigger and better than anything else. . . . It took two men just to carry [his toothbrush] . . . . His knife and fork had to be hung from the ceiling with pulleys."" And when the king gets a toothache from eating the world's biggest candy bar, ""he ordered the blacksmiths to make a gigantic pair of pincers to pull out the royal tooth."" But the story ends routinely when a beautiful but normal-sized tulip blossoms in the king's enormous flower pot. ""'Perhaps biggest is not best after all,' said the king, wondering after the work of nature."" But if none of this is as breathtaking as Anno's Alphabet, . . . Journey, and . . . Counting Book, it does play with size discrepancies in a way that will tickle the same young children who'll relate to the obvious moral.
