A good king is looking for the right words to help his people, rich or poor, deal with life's challenges. Ezra, a humble servant boy, wants to help the king solve his problem. Finally, through a series of mishaps, Ezra hands the king a strange gift--and the perfect words. Many cultures around the world have told versions of this story for centuries. President Abraham Lincoln even included one in a speech. This lively version is adapted from a Jewish source, and it is the great king Solomon who is searching for those precious words to help his people. Author Simpson and illustrator Bernhard once again invite children into the mystery and excitement of another faraway world.
