(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Randy Cecil. In this prequel to The Ugly Princess and the Wise Fool, Irwin of Coriander wants to be a hero, but he is incapable of properly boasting or swaggering, so instead settles for selling caramels. When he attracts the attention of the princess--and her wicked witch sister--Irwin's true nature is revealed. Humorous pencil drawings enhance this silly fairy-tale spoof.
