War and Peas (Revised)Paperback - Revised, 28 March 2002

King Lion looked around his country and was sad. For a long time, there had been no rain, and the ground was hard and dry. Nothing could grow, and there was nothing left to eat. His greedy neighbor the Fat King refuses to help, even though his own people have more than enough to eat. So war is declared. It s war, but not as we know it or should that be peace? Or even peas? A modern classic, "War and Peas" is an early work by Michael Foreman. It is a powerful and percipient fable for our time, highly imaginative and intelligent, bursting with spectacular images."
