Continued in the Kids Wings unit...
Yes,
it's Hans Christian Andersen's "The Princess
and the "Pea," delightfully retold in a
magically piggy world, alliteratively celebrating
a preponderance of "P" words! Hysterical
illustrations by illustrator Henry Cole and funny
turns of events make this a story that kids will beg
to be read over and over. After every reading, they
will emerge with a vivacious vocabulary and a new
sense of the rhythm and fun of words!
