The Prince Who Pressed Fast-Forward
What if you could fast-forward through every boring moment of life?
Meet Prince Bertram, a prince who hates waiting for anything.
Breakfast takes too long.
Lessons are boring.
Meetings seem endless.
And waiting four whole minutes for an egg? Absolutely unbearable!
Then Bertram discovers something extraordinary—a magical Fast-Forward Remote that can skip all the boring parts and take him straight to the good stuff.
At first, it seems like the perfect solution.
But there's one little problem...
The remote doesn't know which moments are boring—and which moments are precious.
As Bertram keeps pressing the button, he begins to discover that the moments we want to skip aren't always the moments we should miss. Sometimes the funniest conversations, sweetest memories, friendships, family moments, and little everyday surprises are hidden inside the parts of life that seem ordinary.
The Prince Who Pressed Fast-Forward is a funny, imaginative, and heartfelt story about learning to slow down and appreciate the moment you're living in.
