Severino was a young man when he decided to get around in the world in search of his fortune. He was an expert in playing with puppets. However he did not know how to read and write. Due to this, he was almost fooled by a jealous king who did not want his daughter to get married with him. Helped by a friend who was a mountebank leader, Severino learned how to read and built a great library to his people.
This book is part of the Collection WAYS TO CHANGE THE WORLD, based on the 8 Millennium Development Goals proposed by the United Nations. The second goal, “Achieve universal primary education”, motivated The King of the Puppets-Show.
