The King of Nature
By Yara Reshef Nehor
A green and amusing play for ages 7-3.
"The truth is that in nature, every creature has a role, and we are all connected..."
Nelin, a young girl who loves nature, gets a golden opportunity to visit the palace of King Raju, the King of Nature. She is very excited, as it is well known that his palace is surrounded by stunning nature. However, when she arrives at the palace, she discovers to her disappointment that the king never leaves outside and has no interest in nature whatsoever!
"But how is this possible?" wonders Nelin. "After all, you are the King of Nature!"
She invites the king on a tour through the kingdom to show him how wonderful his nature is. But everywhere they go, the king finds flaws: in the lake, frogs croak and make noise, so he orders them to be driven away. In the flower garden, bees sting his nose, so he orders them to be removed. In the green meadow where rare butterflies live, nettles cause him itching, so he orders them to be uprooted.
Not long passes before the lake fills with mosquitoes, the flowers in the garden wither, and the butterflies in the meadow disappear. The king does not understand what happened to his beautiful kingdom? He is convinced that Nelin is to blame for everything. Will she manage to make him realize that in nature, everything is connected? That every animal and plant has a role?
In order to restore the kingdom to being beautiful and flourishing, the king must understand that nature does not belong only to him, and that the role of the "King of Nature" is primarily to protect nature!
