Sold by Mighty Ape
Loosely based on the Buddhist Jātaka Tales Prince Temiya doesn’t speak. He doesn’t shout or scowl or give royal commands. Instead, he dances, wobbles, giggles; and sometimes stands on his head! Everyone in the palace thinks he’s just a silly boy, but Temiya is keeping a very big secret.
For many years, Temiya plays the fool to hide his wisdom and kindness, because he doesn’t want to be king. Kings have a big job and sometimes aren’t so nice. Prince Temiya befriends animals, shares his sweets, and even helps turtles and pigeons in need. But when the day comes for him to leave the palace behind, the truth is finally revealed, and it’s more powerful than anyone could have imagined.
Full of warmth, humor, and heart, The Silly Prince is a joyful retelling of a classic Buddhist tale that celebrates compassion, nonviolence, and the quiet power of living with purpose. With enchanting illustrations on every page, this rhyming picture book is perfect for ages 4 and up. An uplifting read for little ones, families, and classrooms alike.
