The Purloining of Prince Oleomargarine

A newly discovered and previously unfinished Mark Twain children’s story, inspired by a spontaneous bedtime tale in Paris in 1879, has been brought to life by authors Philip and Erin Stead. Based on Twain’s archived notes, the book imagines what could have been if the story had been fully developed, offering a whimsical fairy tale about a boy with magical seeds on a daring quest. Narrated by a talented cast including Keegan-Michael Key and Philip Stead, this debut children’s book from America’s legendary writer offers a charming and imaginative adventure for young readers.
