The King and Queen's Banquet Jasmine Atkins

In this playful comedy adventure, the King and Queen are hosting a banquet. But some of their chosen dishes pose a real challenge to the Royal Hunter. Lion steaks? Shark and sea turtle soup? In comparison, getting the rabbit appetizer should be quite easy, right? Fortunately, the hunter gains the aid of a helpful witch and together they gather what is needed, though not without some difficulties along the way. However, at the banquet itself, an uninvited guest (that's right - a dragon!) takes the party on an amusingly dark turn.=====The Authors' Hope: Arranged as a three-act play, we imagine "The King and Queen's Banquet" being read quietly to oneself or dramatically out loud, acted out as a puppet theatre, or even put on as an elementary or middle-grade school play. Whichever way you enjoy our story, we hope you have as much fun imagining all the action as we did when we first thought it up. - Jasmine and Trevor.
