Tansy is the only prince who actually cares about the kingdom of Biddle, but he needs help if he is ever going to become king. When the kindhearted prince meets a friendly green toad with a very nice smile, their fates become permanently tangled. Parsley and Tansy must work together to outsmart the wicked twins, break a fairy curse, and prove that anything is possible.
