6、ere sending a message asking for peace.The people there were just like the people in this kingdomthey did not know what lay beyond the wall,but they hated it anyway.The other kingdom had been as shocked and ashamed of their hatred as the children had been.In no time,the wall was gone,and the two kin

7、gdoms were friends again.They forgot all about their argument,whatever it was.The Wall Level S153Once upon a time,further back than anyone can remember,two kingdoms got into an argument.No one could recall what it was about,for it was ages upon ages ago,but everyone was so furious about it that they

8、 decided to build a wall between their lands.It was taller than anyone could climb and longer than anyone could travel.The wall kept the two kingdoms utterly separate,though no one could remember just why they couldnt stand to be neighbors anymore.Nonetheless,when cracks appeared in the wall,people

9、repaired them,and when streams wore away holes under the wall,the people quickly filled them in with earth and stones.“We dont want those scoundrels from the other side coming over here,”they said.The Wall Level S14“Send a message to the other kingdom,”Mary said,quickly.“Tell them that we want to be

10、 friends,and that were also really sorry about the argument,whatever it was.”4Since so much time had passed since anyone had seen the other kingdom,no one was sure what it looked like anymore.But they assumed there must be some reason for the wall being there.There must be something about the people

11、 of that other kingdom,either good or bad,if the wall was needed to keep them out.Or is the wall there to keep us out of their kingdom?the people wondered.Eventually,people began to tell stories about what had become of the other kingdom.13“Theyll only come over and kill us,”said Richard.Frederic ju

12、st sighed.But the bird was even wiser than the children supposed.It understood that the people feared and hated what was on the other side of the wall,even though they werent sure what it was.Off it flew over the wall,and after three very long days,it returned.“Tell us what you saw,”Frederic asked,a

13、nxiously.“I saw people,”said the parrot,“and they all looked very sad.I flew down into a tree and listened to them.They said they regretted ever having the argument,and they wished they had never built this wall.They only hoped that they could be friends with your kingdom again.”The children were as

14、tonished and a little ashamed.They had never suspected that the people on the other side of the wall might want to be friends.The Wall Level S5One story said that the other kingdom had bred an army of hideous,fire-breathing monsters.They treated the monsters very cruelly,and kept them angry all the

15、time.“The monsters will cross the wall and invade us any day now,”the people shouted.“The other kingdom is evil and cruel.”The Wall Level S126Another story said that aliens had come from the sky one day and blasted the other kingdom to powder.Then the aliens took everything that remained,loaded it o

16、n their ships,and flew away,leaving an open land.“The aliens are on our side,”said the people.“They have destroyed the other kingdom and left the land for us.The aliens are all-knowing,and they obviously proved us right about that other kingdom.”11“Lets ask them why they have monsters coming to kill

17、 us,”suggested Mary.“We can only ask them something if theres someone to ask,”objected Richard.“But what if the aliens demolished them?”“Yeah,”said Mary,“and if its a perfect paradise,theyll only shoot the parrot for being from the poor,ugly side of the wall.”“Hold on a minute,”said Frederic.“The wh

18、ole point of this is that we dont know whats over there.Were sending the parrot to find out.Perhaps we should send a simple message,something like Who are you?Then we cant really get into trouble.”So the three children purchased the most intelligent parrot they could find.In no time,it spoke fluentl

19、y,and they sent it to see what had become of the kingdom behind the wall.“Dont let the other kingdom know that you come from our side,”Richard said.“Yeah,I dont want those people knowing who we are,”Mary said.The Wall Level S7But there was another story,one that was much more disturbing.Most people

20、claimed that they did not believe it,but in their hearts,they wondered whether it might be true.Over the unnumbered years,the other kingdom had become a paradise.The streets were paved with candy,the trees were made of chocolate,and everyone was blissfully happy.“And we sit here working all day,with

21、 nothing but regular bread,meat,and vegetables to eat,”grumbled the people.“That greedy kingdom just wants to keep the paradise to themselves.”The Wall Level S10“Ive got it!”shouted Frederic.“Well buy a parrot,the smartest one in the land,”explained Frederic.“Well teach it to speak and send it over

22、the wall with a message for the people on the other side.”8No matter which story people told,it only made them despise the other kingdom more and more.“Evil attackers will come any day now!”cried some.“The supreme alien race proved that they were terrible and deserved to die,”shouted others.“They lo

23、ok down upon us as poor ruffians,”muttered others.But no one knew for sure.9But the children of the kingdom were tired of hating.“How can we hate something if we dont know what it is?”asked Richard.“I say we discover whos on the other side of the wall.Once we learn about them,maybe we can figure out what the argument was,and we might even be able to end the fight.Then we can finally get rid of this ugly old wall.”“But how would we find out?”asked Mary.“No one can see over the wall or travel around it.”The Wall Level S
