The Arguers

內容簡介

內容簡介 這是一個令人會心一笑、充滿創意的原創童話故事，由《錯誤之書》（The Book of Mistakes）知名作家所創作。故事中，一開始大家因為一把刷子和一把梳子，爭論哪一個更適合理順國王的鬍鬚。接著爭論變成了信件，然後是湯匙⋯⋯漸漸地，他們無時無刻不在爭吵，沒有人記得爭吵是從什麼時候、因為什麼事情開始，或是由誰引起的。他們只知道，自己從來都在爭吵，而且爭吵得非常厲害，非常厲害。於是國王和王后決定舉辦一場比賽，要選出全國最會爭吵的人。但當大家忙著爭吵，甚至連王后宣布比賽開始的聲音都聽不到時，故事會有什麼樣的發展呢？A delightfully preposterous and original fairy tale about a community that forgets how to get along, by the celebrated creator of The Book of MistakesThe first argument was over a brush and a comb, and which would be better for taking a tangle out of the king's beard. Next came the argument over letters, and then over spoons . . . and soon they argued all the time, and no one could remember when the arguing had started or over what or by whom. They only knew that they had always argued, and that they did it well. Very, very well.And so it was that the king and queen decided to hold a contest to choose the very best arguer in the land. But what will happen when everyone is so busy arguing that they can't even hear the queen announce the start of the contest?
