Author Morpurgo writes Leicester football fairytale
War Horse author Michael Morpurgo has written a new fairytale, titled Fox and the Ghost King, to celebrate Leicester City fulfilling a football fairytale of winning the Premiership against the odds.
Some fans have attributed Leicester’s miraculous season to Richard III being laid to rest after his remains were discovered in a car park in the city.
Mr Morpurgo wrote and performed Fox and the Ghost King (or Uneasy Lies The Head That Dreams The Impossible Dream) for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4’s Today programme.
