Leadership comes with Responsibility

Below is a short story I wrote for my son's story telling competition. I have shortened the story a lot so that Adu could easily tell it. 

Long ago, King Mumbri ruled the island kingdom of Mumbeshwar. Mumbri was a kind but careless king. He thought his kingdom was full of rich and happy people. However, Princess Mumbadevi, the daughter of King Mumbri, was aware of the true state of the kingdom. Thus, she takes him on a ride to show the truth. 

During the journey, the King sees a weak, naked child coming to him. The child begs for some food to eat. Surprised, the King asks the child, “How come my people are begging for food? Aren’t there enough food for all?” This is when the King realizes his mistake. Thus, he promises to fulfill all the needs of the people in his kingdom.

Moral of the story: Leadership comes with responsibility.
