The Dictator

The dictator has others who do almost everything for him - he is fed, his teeth are brushed, and stories are read to him, but only those about how wonderful he is. His private chauffeur drives him to the MINIstry (in a small tank), the staff takes care of his outer clothes, and he practices writing his name, because dictators must be able to do that. When he orders himself to sleep, he must obey - but things go much worse when he tries to order the girl Sirkka to be his friend. When you are a very small dictator, it can become lonely in the end.

The Dictator is a humorous portrayal of a small tyrant - in other words, a child. Based on a book by Ulf Stark.
