The Princess and the Packet of Frozen Peas

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sue deGennaro. Prince Henrik doesn't want to marry a fussy girly-girl like his sister-in-law. His princess test involves a camping mat, a sleeping bag, and "a whole packet of frozen peas." When his hockey-playing friend Pippa has a good night’s sleep, Henrik knows he's found his match. The collage, gouache, and pencil illustrations verge on unattractive, but they suit this playful fairy tale.
