      About This Book

      A young girl misunderstands her parents' expressions as fairy tales in this humorous picture book by Fred Gwynne.

      Confused by the different meanings of words that sound alike, a little girl imagines such unusual sights as "a king who rained" and "the foot prince in the snow."
