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.
