- Abstract
- en_US This is one of a boxed set of 30 fable books by Usborne, 32 pages in length, 5" x 7¾". This booklet is on the second level. The back cover identifies it as a traditional tale. Each month, the King with donkey ears jails the servant who cuts his hair that month. He believes that no one besides these servants knows. Meg, next servant in line, pleads to let her continue to care for her mother. She goes free, but she has to tell the secret! She tells a tree, which becomes a harp, which reveals the secret. The king's best friend reassures him that everybody knows and no one minds. The artists' best work in lively depictions is often the minor characters around the edges. This story is told of Midas in Greek mythology. The booklet finishes with puzzles and answers.
