- Summary:
- A folktale from a master storyteller. One hot day in June, Peter, son of Jamesy the milkman, catches the King of all Trout and sets out on a quest to find the true princess. Along the way he meets friends and enemies -- poor tattered Kate, Beg, a madcap little man, the evil giant Meelamor and his wicked wife Edda. With a talking fish, a strange black egg and a lost king, the story of The Trout in the Turnhole has magic, mystery and humor. A perfect read-aloud, from "a writer of outstanding literary achievement", trumpets the Financial Times.
