Oh my goodness…this book is absolutely hilarious!!! The pictures throughout the story definitely
helps the reader see the characters. Just look at the book cover above, you can definitely tell there is one of the characters creating problems. I thoroughly
enjoyed the mixture of trivia, sarcasm and the way the story progressed. I read it to my first graders and although
they didn’t “get” everything, they giggle throughout.
Maximilian is a young prince.
He loves to ask questions. He
then answers the questions with LONG, insightful, and ramblings that go never
seem to end. His three brothers are beyond irritated that
their brother talks so much. The boys
take the opportunity to have a spell put on Maximilian when the King and Queen
go on a vacation. The wizard’s spell
allows Max to speak only 9 words at a time.
At first, the boys think it is absolutely wonderful. They quickly encounter a huge problems when a queen from another country comes to visit and they realize that they need Maximilian’s help to get them out of the situation that has been created.
