El pequeño Rey Diciembre vive entre dos ladrillos, detrás de una estantería de la habitación de un señor, que vive solo y es algo triste, en un piso algo destartalado. La idea es que Rey Diciembre viene a demostrarle al inquilino de la casa, el desastre que supone que a los adultos les desaparezca por completo la fantasía aunque a cambio de una cierta sabiduría. Se hacen amigos y descubren que la organización actual de los seres humanos solo lleva a la desconfianza y a la falta de felicidad. Filosofan sobre el infinito, el mal, juegan, se divierten y concluyen que la vida, para ser feliz, tiene que estar llena de pequeñas cosas agradables.

For some time now, I've been getting visits, every now and again, from December II, the little pot-bellied king. He's about three inches tall and so fat that he can't button up his tiny red velvet coat with the magnificent ermine collar. "Little King December" comes from a place where, the day you are born, you wake up fully grown and fully clothed, in a suit, say. And that very first day of your life you go into your office, do some deals, write a computer programme, or sell foreign rights in a first novel. You are born big, knowing everything, but every day you get a little bit smaller and you forget a little bit more, so that at the end of your life you are tiny, and you spend your days forgetting things, eating jelly bears and chasing shadows in the garden. King December lives in a tiny room in a hole in the wall, the shelves piled high with countless colourful boxes, full of his dreams.

Little King December comes from a place where, the day you are born, you wake up fully-grown and fully clothed. That very first day of your life you go into your office, make some deals, sell a few books, or, in his case, rule a kingdom. And every day you get a little bit smaller and you forget a little bit more, so that at the end of your life you are tiny, and you spend your days forgetting things, eating brightly colored gummy bears, and chasing shadows in the garden. But don't let size fool you. Little King December is full of big questions that require big answers. What do you know already when you are born? Why do you feel small when you look at something big? With an upside-down logic and a knack at finding the funny truth of things, the little pot-bellied king teaches the narrator and the reader what life and dreams are all about.

'When I was a small boy I had a little, silent bear called Sunday ...' So begins a story in which a boy and his bear are so inseparable - in the way that children and bears often become. When the little boy goes to the swings, the bear goes too and sits in the swing next to him. When he goes to the toilet, the little bear sits next to him on a tiny potty. They are the best of friends. But the little bear never says anything. And he never gives the boy a kiss. Doubts cross the boy's mind: does the little bear love the boy as much as he loves him? Is the bear really alive? He tries to get some sign of life out of the bear. And then one night the boy has a dream ...A beautifully poetic story about the magical world of children and bears.
