Seymour is a boy from New York, who finds himself whisked to Moronica, the stupidest kingdom in the history of fairy tales. There, this ten year-old C-student finds himself the smartest man in the land! A cast of colorful but dim characters turn to him for advice... and he brings them to the brink of war.
From Emmy-winning "Simpsons" writer Mike Reiss, this novella for smart kids and dopey adults is at once a fable, an adventure story, and a satire of everything from warfare to weight loss.
Mike Reiss is the author of eighteen children's books, including the best-seller "How Murray Saved Christmas". He's won four Emmys, a Peabody, and a Lifetime Achievement Award for his work on "The Simpsons". He has also won awards for playwriting and an Edgar Award for Mystery. Like most children's book authors, he has no children.
