The book has just the right amount of text with just the right amount of detail in the pictures. I love the soft illustrations and the simple storytelling. If you are looking for the traditional story, this is the one to get. The Princess and the Pea, by Maja Dusikova You’ll have to read it yourself to find out how the pea intervenes! When she knocks at the door, she is whisked away to the stack of twenty mattresses.
One night, the kind young gardener is drenched by a storm. The queen tries a different approach – she puts the pea under a stack of mattresses, but no princess can feel it. “You are nearly thirty-four years old, Prince! If you are not married within one year, I shall stop your allowance.” The prince travels the world and meets many princesses, but none of them are right for him. It’s told by the pea, who explains that the Queen demanded that her son get married. This creative version is one of my favorites. The Very Smart Pea and the Princess-to-Be, by Mini Grey This book is well written and thoroughly entertaining. When the girl falls out of bed and comes to breakfast covered in bruises, the maid believes that the pea caused the bad night of sleep and declares her a princess. The maid misunderstands, believes the girl is a princess, and leads her to a stack of 20 mattresses with a pea underneath. One night she was caught in a storm and sought refuge at the castle with her dog, Prince S. The story is told by the “princess” (who isn’t really a princess at all). We loved this funny twist on the familiar tale! I chose only our favorites to include in this list.īelieve Me, I Never Felt the Pea! by Nancy Loewen Today I’m sharing some fun versions of the familiar tale, The Princess and the Pea.
