In this colourful tale, a king and his servant learn about the benefits of diversity and the damage that barriers can do.

In this moving and valuable story, a king banishes anyone who looks different from him and builds a wall to keep them away. His kingdom once flourished with singers and sculptors, dancers and astronomers, and everyone in between. Now, most of the people are gone. Once he sees how lonely his side of the wall has become, he realizes where he went wrong and gains a new appreciation for his diverse and talented kingdom.

This story, with a visually engaging style that simplifies a complex lesson, shows children how a community can be harmed when barriers are built and how it thrives when people come together.
