Rendition Conducive To Books The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom (The League of Princes #1)

Prince Liam. Prince Frederic. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You’ve never heard of them, have you? These are the princes who saved Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Snow White, and Rapunzel, respectively, and yet, thanks to those lousy bards who wrote the tales, you likely know them only as Prince Charming. But all of this is about to change. Rejected by their princesses and cast out of their castles, the princes stumble upon an evil plot that could endanger each of their kingdoms. Now it’s up to them to triumph over their various shortcomings, take on trolls, bandits, dragons, witches, and other assorted terrors, and become the heroes no one ever thought they could be. Christopher Healy’s Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom is a completely original take on the world of fairy tales, the truth about what happens after “happily ever after.” It’s a must-have for middle grade readers who enjoy their fantasy adventures mixed with the humor of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. Witty black-and-white drawings by Todd Harris add to the fun.

Evaluate Regarding Books The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom (The League of Princes #1)
I'm a huge fractured fairy tale fan, and this is a wonderful addition to that genre!In The Hero's Guide we learn the truth behind all those Prince Charming stories (they're not named "Charming", for one) and that the stories have been a little mangled thanks to the bards. Frederic, the foppish, fearful Prince in the Cinderella story, decides to go in search of Ella (she's eager for adventure, not a safe, cossetted life at home) and on the way meets Princes Gustav (Sleeping Beauty), Liam (Briar

For some reason, the cover of this book didn't immediately grab me. And the premise seemed a little too "wink wink nudge nudge see what I did there." But after having so many friends recommend this book, I just had to try it.LAUGHED SO HARD.This is an absolutely hilarious look at what life is like for "Prince Charming." Does he have a name? Is he the same guy who saved Rapunzel, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White? (The answers: yes, and no!) The princes were instantly endearing, and



This book was sooo fun. The ending was surprisingly unresolved for a mid-grade book--maybe there's going to be a sequel?--but other than that, I love it and would recommend it to anyone. I didn't expect how entertaining it would be to see these stories from "Prince Charming's" side. The fresh perspectives and modern language really bring the characters from these well-known stories to life in new, unexpected, and endearing ways.

Doesn't everyone knows the tales of Cinderella, Rapunzel Sleeping Beauty and Briar Rose? But, what about the names of all the Princes from those tales? Believe me, I was struggling with that one too. I blame it on to many Disney movies growing up. Apparently everyone has just been calling them Prince Charming for years. Now if you asked Prince Liam, Prince Frederick, Prince Duncan and Prince Gustav, they would say it's all on account of those no good bards messing up the way things really went.

Original BookTube review HEREWhile I dont always judge a book by its cover, the first thing I look for is one thats eye-catching. This cover had very fun and alluring artwork promising a good adventure. The blurb on the back from Frank Cottrell Boyce, author of a book I thoroughly enjoyed called Cosmic, synched it.What I liked about this book was, well, everything. *grin* The idea of taking each Prince Charming from Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel and Cinderella and not only giving them

I just couldn't finish . . . . First, I didn't like how nearly all of the princes were made into namby-pamby goofs, and the princesses were strong, capable, and able to save themselves. My sister (who finished it) tells me it got better in the end, but nonetheless, it was the theme throughout the first 34s and I did not like it. It felt very feministic to me. Also, the crudityviolencewitch-stuff made me cringe a few times, and this is NOT something I would give to my middle-grade aged brothers!
