Esther put on her royal clothes. She went to see the king. Would he be mad? No! The king was glad. He held out his gold scepter.
The king asked what she wanted. Esther asked the king and Haman to a feast. They came. Then she asked them to come to one more feast.
Haman went home glad. But he saw Mordecai at the gate. Mordecai did not stand up for him. Haman was mad. He made a bad plan against Mordecai.
