The Princess and the Peanut Allergy

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Tammie Lyon. Regina is excited for her princess-themed birthday. But there's a problem: her best friend Paula's peanut allergy means she can't eat the specially selected cake. Regina thinks Paula's being dramatic, but she eventually realizes what a true friend would do. There's some implausibility to the premise, but the story gets its message across. Pink-heavy illustrations display the girls' (sugar) highs and lows.
