New Tales of Great Wall
Kelly Wing S
ong long time ago, China had a king called “Jack”. He played everyday and he didn’t take care of his
kingdom. Although he had been a king for several years, he didn’t have many experiences. Most of this
country’s citizens worried. They were afraid of the economic effect of their salaries. Besides, they were
also frightened that other countries might invade China. The situation was really very bad.

One day, when the king was drinking wine, and playing, God saw him. God was very very worried.
God said to the king, “Jack… I know you are a good man, you love your kingdom but playing all the time is the
wrong thing to do. Your kingdom’s situation is bad because another country is planning to invade China next
year. Your country will disappear very soon. Moreover, let’s see what you have been doing during these 14
years as king.”

After some time, the king knew that he had done many wrong things. He did not take responsibility for
caring for his citizens or his kingdom. He was ashamed of himself. He decided that he must take care of his
country, quickly. He thanked God and then told his helpers to build a very, very long wall to defend China
against other countries which might invade.
Day after day, the workers worked many years later, the wall was built. The king called the wall “The Great
Wall”.
Soon all other countries invaded China . Luckily, China had the Great Wall so they won this battle.
Moreover, the king also started to take care of this kingdom. All the people in his country lived happily and
safely forever.
Now in the 21 century, The Great Wall of China is very famous. Many tourists visit the greatest building in
all of China- The Great Wall.
