Once upon a time, there was a young prince named William. He lived in a grand castle with his parents, the king and queen. William was a curious boy and loved to explore the kingdom.

One day, while wandering through the forest, William stumbled upon a large cave. He cautiously entered the cave and was surprised to find a dragon sleeping inside. But what caught his eye was the pile of treasure next to the dragon.

William's eyes widened in amazement as he saw the glittering gold and precious jewels. He had always dreamed of being rich and having all the treasures in the world. He quickly ran back to the castle to tell his parents about his discovery.

The king and queen were overjoyed and immediately sent their knights to retrieve the treasure. But when they returned, they were shocked to find that the treasure was not gold, but something far more precious - books.

The dragon had been collecting books from all over the kingdom, hoping to one day read them all. William was disappointed at first, but as he started reading the books, he realized the true value of knowledge and imagination.

He also discovered that the dragon was not a fierce creature, but a kind and wise one. They became fast friends and spent many days reading and talking about their favorite stories.

As time passed, William had to make a difficult choice. The king and queen wanted him to take the treasure and become the richest prince in the land. But William knew that the dragon's friendship and the knowledge he gained from the books were far more valuable.

In the end, William chose love and knowledge over wealth and became the wisest and happiest prince in the kingdom. And the dragon's treasure continued to grow as they added more and more books to their collection.

From that day on, the kingdom was filled with stories and imagination, thanks to the dragon's treasure. And William learned that sometimes, the most precious things in life cannot be bought with gold. The end.
