King Tubbitum and the Little Cook
Reducing the king's weight, guessing a dragon's favourite food, curing a princess of insomnia - no matter what the problem, the Little Cook uses just the right mixture of culinary skill and down-to-earth common sense to solve it. Seven very short stories featuring a not very bright ruler and his entourage, just right for reading aloud to the under-sevens or for young solo readers to enjoy for themselves.
