Serious Trouble

(2) K-3 Young prince Ernest wants to be a jester. His extremely serious parents, the king and queen, don't get it. How can he think about humor when a three-headed dragon is threatening the kingdom? But when Ernest comes "face-to-face-to-face-to-face" with the dragon, his comedic tendencies save his life and restore peace to the land. The energetic illustrations extend the well-paced joke, and the silliness is carried through to the punch line.
