(Hardcover)
$17.95 (Online)
Meet Quashiba, a beautiful, innocent girl who is about to be made a queen, although she is not a princess. No, she is merely a peasant girl, busy spinning the plainest thread on a day when the king comes riding up to her.
"Oh, great Big King," says her mama, hoping to catch the king's attention, "my daughter is spinning a whole field of finest golden thread to make cloth for his Highest."
What can Quashiba do about her mama's terrible lie? For the king decides to marry her, and in a year, he will padlock her in a room and demand that she spin and weave him three whole rooms of golden things.
What will Quashiba do?
