Synopsis
In this classic fairy 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 twenty mattresses. Only a real princess would feel the pea and have a sleepless night. This beautifully illustrated retelling captures the charm and whimsy of the original story, making it perfect for young readers.
