A very wise wizard gives the three sons of the king a seemingly simple task: grow a tree. The son that does the best job will inherit the crown. Each boy takes a different approach, with a different outcome, but although only one gains the throne, all three are richly rewarded. This charming story promises to enchant children, but it also contains a valuable lesson for their parents. In that event, it qualifies as both a delightful fantasy and a thought-provoking parable.
