"King for a Day" by Rukhsana Khan tells the story of a young boy named Sami, who dreams of being a king. On the day of the Eid festival, he and his friends engage in a playful competition to impress their peers. As the children participate in various activities, Sami grapples with the meaning of power, respect, and leadership. Through his experiences, he learns valuable lessons about kindness, humility, and the joy of friendship. The story beautifully captures the essence of cultural celebrations while highlighting the importance of character and connection over status.
