What would it be like if there wasn’t a chair in the world big enough for you to sit in? Meet Esteban Dospordos. He’s the laziest, most good-for-nothing giant you’ve ever seen! And he’s decided that if he can’t find a chair big enough to fit him, then no one else can have one either!

Esteban’s desperate search for the perfect chair takes him on a journey throughout the Philippine Islands. Children will delight in the giant’s unusual antics and thrill to the surprising conclusion.

An original, humorous tale, richly illustrated by the talented team of Karen Flores and Mark Justiniani, The Chair King will draw readers of all ages to its pages again and again and again.
