Our hero is a boy named Prince River, who grows up before our very eyes, ready to take on the world, then he meets Princess ShaRee (main supporting character, along with King Merric and Queen Sequoia). Along the way, he plays with friends, plays baseball, goes fishing, climbs his tree-hut, eats treats, sees insects, and all sorts of uncommon animals. Once in college, Prince River happily surprises his best friend, and they sail off on his yacht.
