"Not long ago in a nearby land,
a good king looked out over his kingdom. From high in
the castle tower, he could see
everything - tall trees in the forests, beautiful
gardens and farmlands, the crystal blue river and all of
the people who lived and worked in the village below.
One would think, with all of these beautiful things in
sight, the king would be very happy, but he wasn't. In
fact, the king was quite sad. All he could see when he
looked out his window was a terrible sadness in his
kingdom. The people in the village were afraid and all
of this worried the king so much that the smile he used
to have turned into a big frown. The king knew if he
didn't do something soon to stop the sadness, he and his
kingdom might never be happy again."
The magic of a well-crafted
story, alive with colors and emotions, transports us to
places of wonderment and evokes ideas that can change
lives. This is the power of "The Red
Ribbon, A
Story of Hope". It is a story of nurture and
hope. It is an engaging tale of sharing, an enchanting
reminder of how collective abilities can better the
world.
It is the tale of a king who
desperately tries to end the sadness destroying his
kingdom. He calls the smartest, most powerful people in
all the land to his castle. Neither the bravest of
knights nor the most powerful of sorcerers could conquer
the sadness. Yet a simple village weaver had an idea
that would save the kingdom, if only no one was left
out. Don't be left out. Order your copy of "The Red
Ribbon, A Story of
