About this title

Synopsis

Based on a Belgian legend, a boy who is separated from his parents shows his dislike for the raging war by doing his business right on the battle, thus causing both sides to stop fighting, have a laugh and, in the end, make peace with one another.

From the Back Cover

Based on the famous Belgian legend, and the statue that it spawned, this funny, touching story brilliantly and oh-so-simply captures how foolish it is to fight.
