Chapter 33 - The Thief's Tale

Mud Mania is all wrapped up with a pretty, little crown on top. Time for the winner to step onto that center podium and wear that crown. Goodness - what winners have to endure!   Audio version of, The Thief's Tale, written and read by Meena Mason. Copyright © Meena Mason   Excerpt: The king stood up, waiting for the crowd to quiet prior to pompously traipsing down to the podiums.
