Publisher's Synopsis
An old story retold for a new time. This colorfully illustrated book is a new take on a tale dating to Shakespeare's days-the one about a king who falls in love with a beggar woman. Does he woo her and marry her and make her his queen? In this retelling, the Beggar Woman turns the King's world upside down.
From the award-winning creative team that created the cult classic The Jamais Vu Papers, this charming story-poem is written by Wim Coleman and illustrated by Pat Perrin. A great little gift book.
