Bookroo's summary

Prince Carlos prefers jokes over royal duties, but as heir to Faraway Kingdom, he must master jousting. Surprisingly skilled, Carlos faces a tournament where lances are aimed at real opponents. Can he embrace his dorkiness to triumph in this medieval challenge? Discover if laughter can conquer the battlefield in this charming tale.

From the publisher

The third chapter book in the Prince Not-So Charming series features Prince Carlos figuring out how to be charming even when locked in mortal combat. Prince Carlos Charles Charming has a secret: He’d much rather tell jokes than be a prince. But when you’re the heir to Faraway Kingdom, you don’t always get what you want. Which is why Carlos has to learn how to joust. Carlos is surprisingly great at jousting, from spearing haystacks to smashing watermelons. But when a tournament rolls around, suddenly Carlos realizes he has to actually point his lance at other people—and they’ll point theirs back! Perfect for middle school readers and filled with adorable illustrations, Prince Not-So Charming: The Dork Knight shows it’s hard to live up to the fairy tale—and that the best way to win a contest can be embracing your own dorkiness.
