Book Reviews of The Unhandsome Prince
Book Review: A Delightful Spoof That is NOT Anti-Semitic
Summary: 5 Stars
There are three princes, Kenny, Jeff, and Hal. It is Kenny, the evil one, who wants to expel the Jews for exactly the same ignoble reasons Ferdinand and Isabella expelled the Jews from Spain, to sieze their assets and get out of paying money owed to them (see Charles Kimball, When Religion Becomes Evil: Five Warning Signs, p. 150). Princes Hal and Jeff get together and foil Kenny's evil plot.
Caroline wanted to marry a Handsome Prince, so, knowing that a prince has been turned into a frog, she systematically kissed every frog in the swamp until, after kissing hundreds of plain frogs, she finally kissed the right one, but Prince Hal is anything but handsome in Caroline's opinion; she considers him "rather dorky," and feels cheated.
Caroline and Hal set out for the royal palace along with Emily, the daughter of the deceased sorceress who cursed Hal to frogdom. After the order of expulsion is rescinded, Caroline persuades prince Jeff, who is about to become the new King, that he should knight a Jewish ally to demonstrate his support of fairness. Hal's comment is priceless; read the book and enjoy it.
