Folktales can be scary, as wrongdoers often get their comeuppance in unsuspected or even macabre ways, but the reinvigoration of values sometimes perceived as quaint makes for a stimulating read.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"color: #545454; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 13px;\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"color: #545454; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 13px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #545454; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 13px;\"\u003eIn this collection you’ll meet a king who loves honey so much that instead of ruling over his people, he licks honey all day. You’ll ponder the conundrum of the moon, who longs for a playmate—but where to find a child who isn’t fast asleep at night? You’ll enter a forest in which the king of mushrooms and the queen of ants coexist autonomously but face the same threat: the little hands and trampling feet of children at play. And you’ll learn how flavoring food with the salt from tears can pose a challenging dilemma.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PENGUIN RANDOM HOUSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44457965453449,"sku":"9781524720339","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thebookmarkpr.com\/products\/in-the-land-of-happy-tears","provider":"The Bookmark Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
