Publisher's Synopsis
After he outlawed jelly beans, the duke issued another proclamation: 'I had exactly one mother and one father and I turned out so well, I think all children should have exactly one mother and one father. And that don't work, we'll throw 'em in the dungeon.' But the kids of the kingdom found a way to stop him. Their story is one of five original and enchanting fairy tales that make up this collection. Beautifully illustrated with paintings and drawings throughout, this book has already been described as 'one of the outstanding children's books of the season' by Horn Book.
