The Purple Porpoise Preserves the Planet with a 'P'

A delightful, rhyming tale about a young boy who meets a proud and highly educated "Purple Porpoise." The porpoise has a magical wand shaped like the letter 'P', and when he waves it and says a word that begins with 'p' it comes to pass! But the porpoise is in over his head as he inadvertently creates an evil king who wants to take over the planet, and he can't think of a word that will rid the world of him! The porpoise learns an important lesson in humility as he has to rely on the boy, who comes up with a word that eliminates the evil king. . . and preserves the planet! A classic work that is enjoyed by readers young and old alike!
