Life just got a little more complicated for the Prince of Ever After Land. Prince Carlos Charles Charming must figure out how to let everyone know he’s really a prince before he ends up as Toad Surprise in Chef Auskotzen’s dinner pot. With the help of his friends, Jack the Jester and Princess Pinky from Ever-After Land, Carlos will hop, ribbit and mime his way back to human form.

Author Roy L. Hinuss keeps up with the clever puns and poop jokes in this fourth book in the Prince Not So Charming series, Toad You So. Kids will enjoy the lovable characters and adults will smile at the continued adventures of the hero, Prince Carlos Charles Charming. A step above easy-readers, the layout will help young readers to become comfortable with longer chapter books. Given the popularity of series books, this would be good to consider for an elementary library collection.
