Summary:
These 21 stunningly illustrated, ultra-short
stories
are seemingly simple but ultimately profound tales that will reverberate in the readers mind long after the book is put down. 'Buzz off,' said the
king
, shooing the bee from his flower. 'Dont you know Im the
king
?' 'And Im the queen,' said the bee, stinging the kings nose. In each story, the
king
has an encounter which he tries to rule over. But of course the rain doesnt stop just because a
king
orders it, and tired eyelids can be much stronger than a
king
's will. These encounters show the
king
that his power has limits; the world is diverse and much of it operates under its own rules.
