Synopsis

Kids and pizza-it's an irresistible combination. And now for all kids comes the king of pizza, a magical story about the world's favorite food that marries a full-color illustrated storybook with a kid-size pizza plate, all piping hot and ready to be displayed in a custom-designed white pizza box. Pity the King of Naples. His belly rumbles. His stomach growls. He eats one amazing dish after another prepared by the finest chefs in Europe, and still he goes to bed hungry! Until, disguised as a beggar, he sneaks out of his palace and discovers Salvatore's Pizzeria. Mixing legend and fantasy, fun and food, Sylvester Sanzari weaves a classic tale of a King, a baker, a pizza and seven orphans-and a story about discovering and sharing the simple things in life. Accompanying the storybook is an unbreakable and dish-washer safe pizza plate printed in four-color. The white corrugated pizza box is die-cut to reveal the book cover and the plate within. It's one with everything.88,000 copies in print. Illustrations by John E. Hurst.
