"I can influence the king," the peasant boy said to his friend. "No you can't!" his friend replied. "You're just a peasant boy, and he's the king."
The peasant boy's boast triggers a chain of events that culminates within the palace walls. Along this delightful journey across a countryside of old, the two friends observe daily village life to see if the boy's boast will come true. The Boy Who Influenced the King is a story that reminds all readers, young and old alike, that we can each have an influence on our world and encourages us to set lofty goals. The timelessness of human nature is subtly intertwined with the strands of community, where self-confidence is met with success.
