The king and nothing  Cover Image Book Book

The king and nothing / Olivier Tallec ; translated into English by Nick Frost and Catherine Ostiguy.

Tallec, Olivier, (author,, illustrator.). Frost, Nick, (translator.). Ostiguy, Catherine, (translator.).

Summary:

"There once lived a king who had absolutely everything--and we mean everything. From elephants without trunks, to caramel-flavored ice skates, to caterpillars on bicycles, and even storm clouds that refused to make lightning. Yes, there was simply nothing you can imagine that this king did not have ... well, except for Nothing itself. From author-illustrator Olivier Tallec, The King and Nothing is the wonderfully whimsical and philosophical take of one person who searches high and low for nothing, only to encounter something at every turn. Just how far will the king go to find Nothing?"--Publisher.
