"Listen to the animals!" An urgent message from the past for today and tomorrow.

​Young Randall dreams of adventures until he’s sent off one day on a mission to discover the neighboring king’s secret. When he returns, he’s thrown in a dungeon and despairs until Princess Tilda – the power behind the throne – entices him to compete for her hand. Ben Nadler's modern version in comics highlights the timeless truth at the heart of this Grimms’ fairy tale.
