Little King Josiah
Eight-year-old King Josiah of Jerusalem faces a daunting challenge when he discovers that corruption has taken root in his kingdom. Join Josiah on his quest for justice as he navigates obstacles, seeks advice, and learns what it truly means to be a just ruler.
In the ancient city of Jerusalem, eight-year-old Josiah became the youngest king ever. He wore royal clothes and had kinky hair that crowned his head like a halo. One day, he discovered that some of his advisors were corrupt and treating people unfairly. Josiah knew he had to fix this, but he didn't know how. The future of his kingdom depended on it.
Josiah decided to speak to his advisors. He gathered them in the grand hall of the palace. But when he asked about the unfair treatment, they denied everything. Josiah felt frustrated and unsure of what to do next.
Josiah tried to gather evidence by talking to the people in the market. But some were too scared to speak, and others didn't trust him yet. Josiah felt like he was hitting a wall.
After days of trying, Josiah felt overwhelmed and thought about giving up. He sat on the steps of the palace, feeling hopeless. 'Maybe I'm too young to be a king,' he thought.
Just then, an old wise man approached Josiah. 'Don't give up, young king,' he said. 'Sometimes justice takes time, and you need to be patient and clever.' The wise man handed Josiah a scroll with ancient laws that could help him bring justice.
Using the ancient laws, Josiah called a meeting with his advisors again. This time, he showed them the scroll and demanded change. The advisors were taken aback but had no choice but to agree. Slowly, justice was restored in Jerusalem, and the people began to trust their young king.
