Synopsis

In this delightful retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's classic tale, a prince seeks a true princess to marry. One stormy night, a young woman arrives at the castle, claiming to be a princess. To test her authenticity, the queen places a tiny pea beneath a towering stack of mattresses. Only a real princess would feel the pea and have a sleepless night. This charming story, with its beautiful illustrations and engaging narrative, is perfect for introducing young children to the magic of fairy tales.
