Imagine, if you will, that your friend has a yummy treat.

It could be a chocolate bar, a bowl of popcorn, maybe a juicy orange.

Now, imagine that they offer to share some with you.

What do you think would be the fairest way for them to split their treat?

Well, they could ask you to split it, then choose the portion you want. They could divide it in half, so you each get an equal

portion, or they could be tricky and split it into unequal portions then give you the

smaller one.

So, what's the best way to ensure we all get our fair share?

We're about to meet a king who uses his fair share of intelligence to figure it out.

I'm Rebecca Shear and welcome to Circle Round,

where story time happens all the time.

Today our story is called The Rightful Air and that's Air as

in H-E-I-R like the Air to a Throne or inheritance. We found versions of this tale from Jewish and Japanese

lore. Some really great people came together to bring you our adaptation of this

folk tale including Oliver Stark who stars an ABC's smash-hit drama series 911.

So, circle round everyone for the rightful air.
