Publisher's Synopsis
This book, beautifully illustrated by the author, is a true story about a real king in a real place. It is based on the author's personal experience and reveals the unique culture of this island people.
The kingdom of O is on the island of Pohnpei (upon (pohn) a stone altar (pei) ). Pohnpei is part of The Federated States of Micronesia, which is located in the western Pacific.
The story shows how people who have an elevated status can be very humble, wise and caring-a model for the readers of this book to follow.
(This book is written in Dr. Seuss style.)
