Description

Fantasy. Juvenile Fiction. Juvenile Literature. Humor (Fiction.) HTML:Dido Twite�s sharp wits are put to the test in this new adventure in the Wolves Chronicles. After King Richard dies, Dido�s good pal Simon is put on the English throne, but he hates being cooped up in drafty St. James Palace, and his crusty old advisors won�t let him have any fun at all. If only another descendent of the king could be found, Simon would gladly be replaced. Never short a solution, Dido discovers a lead to another member of the royal line. But no one knows exactly who�or where�the child is. The masterful storyteller Joan Aiken once again invites readers into a spellbinding world of magic, mystery, and mayhem�with a dose of �proper� English hilarity, of course.… (more)
