The Forgotten King

This is a fully illustrated children's book that functions as a parable for the Kingdom of God. A good king's village is cursed by an evil wizard. The king must send his son to conquer the curse, banish the wizard, and finally move the castle to the midst of the town so that the people will always be protected.
