Read together
Once upon a time, in a magical kingdom, there lived a kind and friendly king who loved to treat his subjects to delicious treats. One day, the king decided to throw a grand feast for his people, and he invited all the best chefs from far and wide to come and cook for the occasion.
The chefs arrived, each bringing their own specialties. The first chef brought burgers, made with juicy beef patties and soft bread buns. The second chef brought pizzas, with gooey melted cheese and lots of toppings. The third chef brought kebabs, made with tender chunks of meat and spices.
The king was delighted with all the delicious food, but he wanted more. So, he asked the chefs to bring out their sweet treats. The fourth chef brought a tray of sweets, with colorful candy and chocolates. The fifth chef brought a big cake, with layers of fluffy sponge and sweet frosting.
The king was overjoyed and couldn't wait to dig in. But, as he was about to take a bite, he heard a commotion outside. He went to investigate and found that all the children of the kingdom were standing outside the palace gates, with sad faces.
The king realized that he had forgotten to invite the children to the feast. He felt terrible and immediately invited all the children inside to join in the feast.
The children were thrilled and ran inside to try all the different foods. They loved the burgers, and the bread was so soft and yummy. They gobbled up the pizza, and the kebab was so flavorful. They had never tried sweets before, and they were delighted with the candy and cake.
The king was so happy to see the children enjoying themselves, and he knew that he would always remember to invite them to his feasts from then on.
And, to make it more fun for the kids, he also ordered chips, hot dog, fries, as a special treat for them.
The feast went on for hours and everyone was so full and happy. They all thanked the king for the delicious feast and promised to come back for more.
The end.
