There is a chinese folk tale called The Empty Pot by Demi that has that plot as the premise. The difference is that the king gives the seeds to all the children in the kingdom and the one that can grow the best flower will be the next ruler. Only one child follows all the directions and his flower doesn't grow. He returns it to the king very disappointed only to find out he was the only honest one. So he becomes the next ruler. Great read aloud story and easily understood by K to 3rd graders. Hope this helps.
