About This Book

La narración presenta a un niño rey que, al perder un diente, recibe la visita de un ratón urbano y refinado encargado de recoger dientes y dejar un presente a cambio; a partir de ese episodio se relatan sus costumbres, viajes por palacios y vida familiar, y se explican con humor cortesano y ternura las raíces de la tradición de cambiar dientes por regalos. El texto mezcla fantasía y sátira social, alternando escenas festivas y descripciones vivas que celebran la ingenuidad infantil y la idea de fraternidad entre seres distintos.
