  1. King Midas • There once was a king. He was very rich. This king loved two things: His little daughter and his gold. His rooms were filled with gold, but he was not satisfied. He wanted to have more gold. One day the king was in his garden. Suddenly, a stranger appeared. The visitor told the king to make a wish. The king of course asked for more gold. “Tomorrow morning, everything that you touch will change to gold”, the stranger promised. • The next morning the king got out of bed early. He wanted to see if his wish had been granted. First he touched a chair, a flower, and a table. Everything changed to gold! The king was very happy. He then sat down to eat breakfast, but his food turned to gold when he touched it. He thought, “If I can’t eat anything, I will die.” • Just then his daughter came into the room. She ran to her father. But as he touched her ,she changed to gold, too. • The king was sad and worried. He walked alone in the garden. Then he saw the stranger again. The king begged him to take back the wish. “I don’t want any more gold.” he cried. “All right”, said the stranger. “If you are really sure this time, I will take back your wish.” • From that day on, the king was not as rich, but he was wiser and happier.
