The Princess and the Pea by Rachel Isadora March 19, 2011

Posted by jcarlson in : Folk/Fairy Tale, Picture Books , trackback

You are probably familiar with the old fairy tale The Princess and the Pea.  This book is a retelling of the classic Hans Christian Anderson tale.   In this version, the setting is Africa.  The prince wants to marry, but he can’t find the right girl.  One small pea will help the prince find his true love.   Try this book to find out if the prince finds a wife, learn a few African words, and enjoy the colorful illustrations.
