The king asked his daughters to
appear in front of the throne:
"My dear children. You all
love me, but the one who loves
me most shall have the best."
All of them said that they loved
him most. (
) The youngest
stayed silent. But the king was
insistent, and finally she said:
"Even the finest food does
not taste good to me without salt,
therefore I love my father as
much as salt."
We use shadow to tell the story
to leave as much space for association
and fantasy
as possible. But we show as
well real salt - sea and stone
salt - and the children can
taste it afterwards.
