The book begins with the birth of Charles in 1948. By the age of three, as the son of Queen Elizabeth II, he was the heir to the throne of the United Kingdom and a future king!

It briefly brings the points of what and who influenced him. His grandmother encouraged his love for art, music and nature. His father sent him to boarding school as he wanted him to be among other boys. I guess, in a way, having normal childhood, not being surrounded just by royals – that is not explored in this story.I was kind of intrigued that they would come out with a book for King Charles already for children just since we haven't really seen King Charles but rather just Prince Charles thus that particular story is unraveling. And also as a result I feel the book is wrongly named and that it would be better overall to see him as the Prince since basically he has been such for seventy-three years while having made lots of changes thus proving that you don't have to be a king or worldwide leader to make those changes to occur.
