The Perfect Prince Susan Ziller

Come along with a young prince and his knights on a quest to find the most beautiful, the strongest, and the wisest people in the land so that his kingdom will be "perfect". As a child, a young boy loved the people of his kingdom because he saw them as they saw him, "perfect in every way". But, as he grows, he begins to see differences in others and he is saddened because they are not like him at all! His mother tries to help him understand that, as a child he loved them because he saw people as they were, "a perfect creation in God's own image" and to be a good and wise king he must again find this in others. As the story unfolds you will join the prince and three of his bravest and wisest knights as they discover, through the beautiful and colorful illustrations of Kerry Hoyes, what being "perfect" truly means.
