Prologue

Once upon a time, the Earth was a very busy place. It was overcrowded with people. There were so many people:

3 families had to share the same apartment,

70 children were squashed into the same classroom,

140 people squeezed into each and every bus.

It was hard to find a spare seat in a restaurant and kicking a ball at the park was impossible for all the people sitting around it. There were so many people, it was getting hard to find enough food for everyone.

The Earth wasn’t a very nice place to live.

Amongst this overcrowded Earth was an extraordinary boy called Turpentine Dessert DeBoosh, or Turps for short. He lived with his beautiful parents in a strange place called Tontinoonski. It was both a city and a country at the same time. In fact, it was called a Kingdom, because the person in charge was a King. His name was King Flirty Shirtpacker. King Flirty ruled over 42.9845 million people, crammed into an area the size of a large crop farm. However, unlike a farm, it had no grass or trees. It didn’t even have soil, because it wasn’t on land. Tontinoonski was a floating city, built on top of old disused ships
