    .             no matter what they did each day:

    PERSON 1-A    I build homes.

    PERSON 1-B    I clean homes.

    PERSON 1-C    I bake bread.

    PERSON 1-D    I butter the bread.

    PERSON 1-E    I sew dresses.

    PERSON 1-F    I clean up messes.

    NAR.2         Everyone was important,


    .             from the biggest to the smallest,
    .             everyone in the king’s eyes,
    .             from the lowest to the highest:

    PERSON 2-A    I oversee people.                         2

    PERSON 2-B    I sheer sheep wool.

    PERSON 2-C    I make food taste good.

    PERSON 2-D    I chop the wood.

    .             He asked the people about him,
    .             wanting to find him at all cost.

    PERSON 3-A    Who is he?

    PERSON 3-B    Just a nobody?

    PERSON 3-C    Then why look for him?

    PERSON 3-D    Why go out on a limb?

    PERSON 3-E    Why should we dare?

    PERSON 3-F    Why should we care?

    NAR.4         “The boy ONLY picked fruit”,

    PERSON 4-B    Is he out riding?

    PERSON 4-C    Is he on his throne?

    PERSON 4-D    Is he somewhere alone?

    PERSON 4-E    Perhaps reading a book?

    PERSON 4-F    Or did he go out to look?


    .                                                      3
    NAR.5         Soon there was no more fruit
    .             and the people started to realize,
    .             perhaps the boy did have value
    .             much to their surprise

    PERSON 5-A    I miss that kid.

    PERSON 5-B    No matter what he did.

    PERSON 5-D    Every little bit.


    PERSON 5-E    I hope he is found.

    PERSON 5-F    And safe and sound.

    NAR.6         The king returned with the boy


    .             which made everyone happy.
    .             In order to celebrate,
    .             the king threw a great party.

    PERSON 6-A    It is very clear.
