    “The princes Charming reunite for another slapstick, kingdom-saving quest” in an illustrated children’s adventure series that’s “funny and full of heart” (Kirkus). 
     
    Prince Liam. Prince Frederic. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You remember them, don't you? They're the Princes Charming, who finally got some credit after they stepped out of the shadows of their princesses—Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow White, and Briar Rose—to defeat an evil witch bent on destroying all their kingdoms.  
     
    But alas, such fame and recognition only last so long. And when the princes discover that an object of great power might fall into any number of wrong hands, they are going to have to once again band together to stop it from happening—even if no one will ever know it was they who did it. 
     
    This hilarious, action-packed adventure is the sequel to Christopher Healy’s The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom, which the New York Times selected as one of its best books of the year.
