Prince Ricardo of Pantouflia has inherited more than a crown in waiting. As the son of the clever Prince Prigio, he belongs to a royal family already famous for impossible adventures, magical inconveniences, and enemies who rarely stay defeated for long. But Ricardo is young, impulsive, and rather too fond of heroic display, which is awkward when history, giants, enchanted princesses, troublesome shopkeepers, and old foes begin crossing his path. Andrew Lang’s Prince Ricardo of Pantouflia is a sparkling comic fairy tale filled with wit, wonder, and playful reversals of familiar storybook rules. Princess Jaqueline drinks the moon, King Prigio struggles with royal anxieties, lectures become adventures, and Ricardo must learn that courage without sense can be nearly as dangerous as cowardice. With dragons, magic, satire, and a cheerful refusal to behave solemnly, Lang turns the kingdom of Pantouflia into a place where intelligence matters, pride is punished, and fantasy is always laughing at itself. Charming, brisk, and inventive, this sequel to Prince Prigio is perfect for readers who enjoy classic children’s fantasy, humorous fairy tales, and royal adventures with a mischievous edge.
