King Smelly Feet text by Hiawyn Oram pictures by John Shelley (Andersen Press London, 2002) |
| Hiawyn Oram's exuberant story tells of a time when there were no shoes and a King who wouldn't wash his feet. Increasingly bizarre attempts are made to cure the King of his hygiene problems, until a happy solution unfolds. Based loosely on an ancient Indian tale, this book was an opportunity to throw myself into an irreverent world of turbans, palanquins and peacocks. |

pong-soles, wifferfeet and stinkitoes." - Wordpool
