Prince Carlos Charles Charming is much better at making jokes than acting princely. But he does his best to do both, with help from his adorable pet dragon, Smudge, his friend Pinky, who’d rather be a painter than a princess, and his patient, understanding parents, the king and queen. When another prince disappears on a dangerous quest, Carlos is sent after him. But he and his friends stumble on their sea legs, rapidly setting the sail on fire, getting distracted by mermaids selling ice cream (it’s hot on the open seas!), and struggling with a sword that has no interest in being removed from its stone. This book features black-and-white illustrations throughout.
