Description
The timeless story of a magical maker of pots who lived at the edge of an ancient, sinking island. One day, the potter begins to build a magnificant blue palace of clay that glistens in the sun. The villagers are amazed and become suspicious of the foolish old potter. They conspire to possess the palace and throw the potter back into the sea. But the pots are listening and warn the potter of coming treachery. Recommended reading ages 6-8
