Prince Change-A-Lot is fed up with being treated like a baby, especially as his parents, King and Queen Spendfortune, are making a very bad job of running the kingdom. They are spending people's taxes on silly parties and expensive clothes and even the good fairies are on strike because things are so bad. Prince Change-a-lot thinks he could change a few things if only he could talk like a grown-up - and then one day a baby genie appears to grant his wishes and things really begin to happen!
