The Whipping Boy

The Whipping Boy by Sid Fleischman is only 89 pages long, and is about is about a prince that is not all about himself. He is non-selfish, one example of this is when they leave his friend behind and he sais "oy cap'n we have to go back." This is a very selfless act to put yourself in danger to save someones life.
