The Merchant

This endearing story stars an eccentric, exceedingly wealthy Merchant in disguise. He drives a white cube van to a flea market where he proceeds to purchase everything. After lovingly restoring each piece, he sends Michael on assignment to deliver the items as gifts. Seven people are delightfully surprised when they encounter royalty on an ordinary day. Gorgeous, hand-drawn illustrations charm the hearts of young and old in this timeless treasure.
