The King of the Golden City is an allegorical tale which has stood the test of time because of the beauty of its symbolism and the richness of its spiritual advice.  Written for children yet beloved by all, the original tale features a female protagonist, leaving many boys to feel that this tale is more suited to girls.

Encouraged by the original French translators of this book, who created parallel editions for boys and girls, the publishers have now adapted the single original edition, so that boys have their own version of the story.

In this brand new edition adapted especially for boys, readers will find the tale of Dilectus and his friends every bit as charming and instructive as before--and now boys as well as girls will find it easy to become the hero of the story and make it their own!
