A sparklingly funny cautionary tale about the perils of greed – from a multi-award-winning picture book maker!

Once, long ago, there was a king. His kingdom was rich, his palace beautiful and his army big and powerful.

There was just one thing the king did not have.

A ship.

But the king didn’t want just any old ship. He wanted a ship bigger, more powerful and full of beautiful treasures than any ship that had ever been been?

A sparklingly funny story with a mischievous twist – perfect for fans of Jon Klassen, Peter Brown and Emily Haworth Booth’s The King Who Banned the Dark.

From the multi-award-winning creator of The Forest and Jemmy Button.
