Summary: What makes a King?
Comment: Trave is prince of Gadalla, but he should be king. His fatherdied long ago, and he often reminds himself that his uncle, Panii, isnot the rightful king. One day he will rule. Now Trave is not allowed to own a falcon. Now he is not allowed a horse. One day he will have a stable full of fine horses. One day all Gadalla will listen to him and obey his every word.
Trave has little thought of any but himself (and horses)until he meets a visitor to Gadalla, Gris, the wise king of Kapnos. This king remembers Trave's father, of whom it is forbidden to speak. King Gris may be able to help Trave get his throne. He promises to lead Trave on the dangerous journey to find the medallion which is the mark of the true king.
Trave and Gris set off at once, on a journey which leads far. Trave finds himself forced to do many things which do not seem the job of a king, and forbidden to do what a king should be allowed. Perhaps Gris is not truly helping him. Perhaps there is a better way to the crown. Perhaps the medallion does not even exist.
In his journeys, Trave learns the dutys of a king:
To learn what is true;
To believe the truth;
To act on that belief.
Though totally fictitious, this is one of the greatest children's books I have read. An exciting story is used to teach the lesson which Christ so humbly demonstrated by washing His disciples feet: The true king is first a servant.
