King Louie was a very BIG king in all ways but one: He was five-feet-four-inches short. So Louie and his royal cobbler cooked up the perfect high-heeled solution to help Louie appear taller. But after an embarrassing tumble (on the dance floor, no less!) Louie learned that his subjects were loyal no matter how big or how shrimpy their beloved Louie might have been. Readers young and old will relate to this silly and sweet story of King Louie XIV a man who had it all, but still felt small.

King Louis XIV was big, important.
But he was short. He wanted to be as big, as important to others as a king should be.
He tries a series of things to be seen as bigger, as more important, including shoes with very high heels.
A nice little introduction to a very big, very important French king, who was not very tall.
