Excerpt from May I Bring a Friend?

"One day, a small boy receives a very special invitation---the King and the Queen have invited him to the castle for tea. He accepts, with one question: 'May I bring a friend.?' 'Any friend of our friend is welcome here,' says the King. But their guest's friend turns out to be someone they never expected!"

"A beautiful book to look at."---The New York Times

"A hilarious comedy of manners."---The Horn Book
