About this audiobook
Two young boys, born on the same day but into entirely different worlds, meet by chance and decide to switch clothes. The pauper Tom Canty finds himself navigating the complex etiquette of the royal court, while Prince Edward experiences the harsh realities of life on the streets of London. This historical fiction explores themes of social inequality and the arbitrary nature of class, as both boys learn valuable lessons about mercy and justice. It is a compelling tale of identity and the human capacity for empathy.
