The tale of a courageous frog who opens a stubborn Queen's eyes to the beauty of nature is now available in a hardcover classic edition, featuring Charles Santore's brilliant illustrations for a new generation of readers.

The Queen of the Land of Far and Wide is a stubborn and impatient ruler who wreaks havoc in her kingdom and demands perfection out of all things. After tossing everything imperfect into the moat, William works up the courage to respectfully approach her, and miraculously opens her eyes to a new world. Charles Santore's original illustrations are faithfully reproduced with brilliance, detailing the captivating scenes of William's daring adventures and triumphant influence on the Queen.
