The Tiny King

(1) PS This Japanese import tells the simplest of stories. The tiny king is lonely. He's lonely at his gigantic dinner table, on his oversized horse, and in his big bed. Precisely mid-book, he marries a nice big princess and they lose no time in having ten tiny children. The story in pictures has the same clear simplicity, with cheery geometric cut-paper collage in bright colors.
