It would be nice if this background music had a name so I can (of coarse I would need permission), use the background for performance art I want to do on video. I know Joe Raposo wrote "most" music for SS and TEC; however, I wonder about this one because I think the BG music was use in one of the programs under the supervision of AIT (Agency for Instructional Television). If JR's music was used for it, he wasn't credited .
The crown looked close enough that the king could have easily reached under and grabbed it. Plus, it looked like a strain for the girl to squeeze herself under there.
I remember this one! I always thought that king reminded me of Guy Smiley (they used the same puppet pattern, and Jim Henson voiced him too), and the Smallest Person in the Kingdom sounds like Miss Piggy! (Frank Oz did her voice, obviously)
I suppose the smart guy could've thought up a way to get the king's crown out from under the throne. But I'm glad the little girl saved the day though.
What year is that from?

Well, sweet story. But it's not full proof. The smart guy may have thought of a device to get the crown out.

The cover of that book reminded me of one of those Chessmen Cookies (the King ♚, of course) when I was about three years old!

Maybe the smart guy would have noticed the little girl was small enough to fit under the throne.
