Once, long ago, there was a king.

His kingdom was rich, his palace beautiful and his army big and powerful.

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.
