There Was an Odd Princess Who Swallowed a Pea

(3) PS Illustrated by Lee Calderon. The titular "odd princess" goes on a royal eating spree, swallowing everything she comes across, from a pea, to a crown, a queen, and an entire castle. Peppy rhyming couplets introduce the princess's newest snack before the cumulative list is rehashed, concluding each time with, "Then burped with glee." Bright cartoonlike digital art tracks the silliness until the fitting happily-ever-after resolution.
