King Hugo is a very small ruler with a massive problem. He thinks he is the absolute greatest king to ever live, and he never stops bragging about his own perfection. His endless boasting drives everyone crazy, but nobody dares to tell this mighty little monarch the truth. Everything changes when the king crosses paths with a clever village woman who is secretly a powerful sorceress. To teach him a lesson, she casts a magical spell that causes Hugo's head to literally swell up like a balloon every single time he brags. As his ego grows, his head gets bigger and bigger, until it threatens to carry him completely away. This hilariously funny fairy tale delivers big laughs and a perfect lesson about humility. The bouncy rhymes and wonderfully exaggerated pictures make this royal disaster an unforgettable and entertaining story.
