That was a funny joke!!

Hahaha!!

Once upon a time there was a merry little kingdom. Everyone in the kingdom was very happy and lived their lives in comfort. 

They thought, their ruler King Konda was the best king in the whole wide world! Well, he certainly was kind and brave and smart.

 One day the kind threw a big party, to celebrate his birthday. Everybody was laughing and chatting and wishing the king "Happy Birthday".

Help!!

Just then a giant monster poked its snout in and roared so loudly, all the crystal plates shattered.

Then, taking a deep breath he blew a column of fire into the hall!

Everyone fled. But the fire quickly spread. The monster laughed and galloped away.

Soon the village was burning. Thankfully it began to rain soon. The fire was extinguished.

Slimy ash lay everywhere.  

The Monster had been tormenting the village for years now. The villagers could take no more.

The king called a meeting for that evening. 

Whoever can defeat this beast, will get a sack of gold!

I have a plan!

That evening, all the animals put on their best clothes and went to attend the meeting,

There the king announced "Whoever can defeat this beast will get a sack of gold!'

Everyone murmured excitedly. Then, for ten minutes there was silence. 

Everyone was thinking hard, trying to make up a plan .

Finally Owen the Owl announced "I have a plan"

Everyone came closer to hear the plan.Owen explained the plan to everyone. When he was done they smiled.

This plan would definitely work

That night the best builders in the village built a high, stone wall.

The king sent spies to the forest, where the monster lived. They reported back that the monster loved eating fish and apples.

So, a few feet away from the wall, thousands of apples and hundreds of fish were put in a giant tray.

The best archers in the kingdom hid themselves in the tall grass and waited.

A row of people with giant mikes hid behind the houses .

Some distance away the king himself stood with a giant apple in his hand and fish in his crown.

Behind him was a huge set of mirrors.

Now all they had to do was wait for the monster.

Soon enough the monster returned.

It tore down the wall in three seconds and roared.

Watching from their houses, some of the builders sobbed. 

Though they knew it was part of the plan, it was hard seeing all their hard work destroyed.

The monster planned to blow a column of fire into the village and maybe eat a few tasty children, but then he caught sight of the food.

His eyes grew wide and round.

Then, in one swift motion, he began gobbling everything up.

When all the fishes were finishes, the monster started on the apples, crunching and biting.

When they had finished as well, he gave the tray a disappointed look and began licking that.

As soon as he looked away, Phase 2 of the plan started.
