Le Roi Salami Nick Bland

Le roi Salami ne comprend pas pourquoi ses sujets, les moutons, ne l'adorent pas. En fait, plus il essaie d'obtenir leur attention, plus les moutons l'ignorent. Peut-?tre l'aimeraient-ils davantage s'il ?tait mieux habill Pour cela, il lui faudrait BEAUCOUP de nouveaux v?tements chics. Il r?veille donc tous les moutons et leur ordonne de r?cup?rer le moindre brin de laine de leur toison pour lui confectionner les plus beaux habits. Les moutons travaillent toute la nuit et le lendemain matin, le roi Salami peut se pavaner. Il a l'air majestueux et pourtant personne ne le regarde. Il en est d?sol?... Peut-?tre pourrait-il essayer et trouver une autre id?e afin d'amener les moutons ? l'aimer davantage...

This is the story of a king who learns that it takes more than a fine suit to be a good person.

King Pig is the grand ruler of the sheep. In his mind, they are there for him. However, one day he notices - and starts to actually care - that they don't seem to like him. He tries everything he can to impress them - usually at their own expense. Eventually he asks a sheep what he needs to do to make them like him. The answer? Be nice. King Pig, in his king pig way, makes a solid effort. It may not be what the sheep had in mind. But it's a good start.

Nick Bland's wonderfully humourous illustrations bring life to this story of a king who realizes that the suit does not make the man.
