Prince Carlos Charming wants to be a jester, but his father, the king, will hear nothing of it. He sets Carlos up with a few lessons in sword wielding, then off to slay the dragon. Carlos can’t stand the thought of killing a dragon. Luckily, he and the DINO (Dragon In Name Only) hit it off and no slaying is required.

This is a fast-paced story with a lot of humor, especially the potty variety. All the characters are fun and silly. Kids will love Carlos and the friendly dragon. Illustrations throughout.
