About the author

Susanna Davidson also writes as Zanna Davidson.

She joined Usborne Publishing almost straight out of university and has been writing books for them pretty much ever since. She has written about everything from dinosaurs to the Queen to Fairy Ponies and tiny monsters, small enough to fit in your pocket. She is also a mum of two boys and works from home, where she spends most of her time talking to the dog and trying not to eat too much cheese.

Reviews

[Brandon O'Neill]

This was a bigger book for Sam, so we read it in 2 parts. She liked the story and especially liked that the king had 7,322 outfits. I hope she doesn't think she's getting anywhere close to that!

Rereading one of my (4 year old) faves.
I listened to the audiobook while traveling to London with my favorite Grandfather.

Retellings in the Usborne series are usually better than the genuine ones, and I liked this book, which was a great thing! The illustration is also good.

Classic. Kiddo laughed her head off.
