The tiny king is very sad and lonely, until one day he meets a big princess and asks her to be his queen. Not long after, they are blessed with children — lots of children. Now everything is just the right size, bath time is a real riot, and the tiny king sleeps soundly at last.

Twenty-six letters, unique from each other -- and yet, every letter looks just like one another! Kind of like...one big family.
