about the book

In a distant far off country in The Used to Be Wild West, there is a ruler called The Kumeer. Not a particularly nice person, he shouts a lot, he doesn’t consider the people who work for him and he is generally disliked by his subjects.One day he meets a Leopine. A ferocious-looking animal, with a heart of gold and very concerned about right and wrong. He confronts the Kumeer and threatens to do all sorts of nasty things to him if he doesn’t change his ways. The Kumeer, so scared of the Leopine, immediately becomes a caring considerate ruler, and finds out, surprisingly, that he much prefers his new way of life to his previous one. A story that shows that all people deserve consideration and respect no matter who, or what they are.
