King Flashypants and the Evil Emperor (King Flashypants #1)
by Andy Riley (Author) Andy Riley (Illustrator)
Nine-year-old King Edwin is loved by his people, but when he runs out of money evil Emperor Nurbison sees it as a chance to sieze control of Edwinland.
Edwin isn't any ordinary boy. He is a king with a crown, his own suit of armor, a castle with secret passages and water slides--oh, and the most horribly evil man in the universe living next door. Emperor Nurbison is permanently up to no good.
He wants Edwin's kingdom for himself, so when the Edwinland piggy bank runs out of money, he seizes his opportunity.
None of this could possibly lead to a thrilling adventure with action, chocolate, and snappy crocodiles--could it?

Gr 2-4--Young King Edwin has it all--castle, fancy crown, trusted adviser, and money to buy all the chocolate he wants. He is a generous monarch and kindly shares his yummy treats with all his adoring subjects. All is well until his riches run out. This means no more goodies for Edwin or his people. The country folk are not amused. Enter Emperor Nurbison, who has designs on this junior ruler's territory; he plans to turn everyone against Edwin and then dispose of the bothersome lad. Edwin is tempted to run, but his loyalty to his domain is strong. He knows that he will have to be clever and brave if he is to outsmart his mean rival and hang on to his kingdom. VERDICT With super funny illustrations, the silly yet thrilling story line is sure to tickle the ribs of younger elementary readers.--Mary Jennings, Camano Island Library, WA
