Description

A hilarious picture book about creativity, courage, and standing up for your ideas—even when someone in charge says they stink.

From the award-winning author of Please Get Your Shoe off My Brother! comes a laugh-out-loud story about big imaginations and even bigger egos.

In the chaotic kingdom of Kaosville, only one idea matters: the King’s.
Unfortunately… his ideas stink.
And even worse—he’s banned everyone else’s ideas entirely.

That’s a royal disaster for a magician named Kadabra, a chef named Kebab, and a nervous thinker named Kabibble. But these three quirky rebels aren’t giving up. They’ve got ideas—and they just might be the only ones who can save the kingdom from total insanity.

This Funny Picture Book Helps Kids:
~ Feel proud of their own ideas—even if others don’t “get” them at first
~ Understand why listening is a leadership superpower
~ Learn that even kings (and grown-ups!) can be wrong
