The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
by Christopher Healy (Author) Todd Harris (Illustrator)
A fast-paced and hilarious fantasy quest in the grand tradition of Shrek and The Princess Bride, starring four very unlikely, but likeable, heroes.
Prince Liam. Prince Frederick. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You’ve never heard of them, have you? But you’ve probably heard of Prince Charming, the guy who rides in at the last minute to save the girl. Well that’s them, all four of them. They are all Prince Charmings. Only in reality, they are a little less heroic than you might expect.
One day, cast out of their castles for one reason or another, the four Prince Charmings stumble upon each other, then shortly afterwards, upon an evil plot to bring about the downfall of the kingdom. Can the princes stop their bickering, overcome their failings and become the heroes the stories always said they were?
A completely original take on the world of fairy tales and the truth about what happens after "happily ever after." It's a must-have for middle grade readers who enjoy fantasy adventures mixed with humour similar to that in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. Witty black-and-white illustrations by Todd Harris add to the fun.
