Worse, Worser, Wurst (Princess Pulverizer #2) by Nancy Krulik -ADVISABLE

Krulik, Nancy Worse, Worser, Wurst (Princess Pulverizer #2), 124 pages.  Penguin, 2018.  $16.  Language: G (o swears); Mature Content: G; Violence: G.

Princess Pulverizer and her best friend, Lucas and the Dragon Dribble, are off to accomplish her second kind deed so that she can go to Knight school. This time they are determined to rescue a court jester from an evil magician. Unfortunately that means that Princess Pulverizer must become an apprentice to the evil Wizard of Wurst and leave her friends out in the woods. All alone, she is the most danger yet. Lots of engaging illustrations throughout.

I liked this second book almost as much as the first, though its more about the princess and we don’t get to know the other two characters as much. It’s a fun adventure with creative thinking, some goofiness, and lots of heart. I would add this series to my chapter books in a heartbeat.
