Synopsis

Lily-Rose May is a delightful young girl who adores everything—except peas! Despite her father's creative attempts to disguise them, she refuses to eat them. A doctor diagnoses her with 'Princess-itis' and sends her to the palace, where peas are banned. However, royal life isn't as glamorous as she imagined, with cold cabbage stew and endless royal duties. Lily-Rose May soon realises that home, with all its simple joys (and even peas), is where she truly belongs.
