What was the title of J.K. Rowling's 2020 fairy tale for children?

J.K. Rowling's 2020 fairy tale for children was titled The Ickabog.

The Ickabog is a standalone fantasy story set in the imaginary kingdom of Cornucopia. Its plot concerns a feared creature called the Ickabog and the effects of political deception, prejudice, and abuse of power. The central child characters are Bert Beamish and Daisy Dovetail.

Rowling originally wrote the story for her own children while working on Harry Potter. In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, she released it online in installments before the printed edition appeared. She also invited children to submit illustrations for an official competition connected with the book.

The printed edition was published in November 2020. Rowling donated royalties from the book to support groups helping people affected by the pandemic. The Ickabog is not part of the Harry Potter series, does not take place at Hogwarts, and uses a separate medieval-style fantasy setting.
