The Princess and the (Greedy) Pea

A gluttonous pea runs afoul of a very hungry princess in this playful cautionary tale inspired by a favorite cumulative rhyme and a classic fairy tale.There was a green pea who swallowed a sprout. Without a doubt, a brussels sprout. What¡¯s that about This little pea is hungry! So hungry it swallows a sprout, slurps up some soup, munches the bread, gobbles the cake, noshes the pickle, guzzles the cheese, drinks all the tea, and even chomps down the table it¡¯s all served on. After all that, it needs to sleep. But whose dinner did it steal And whose mattress is the now-humungous pea resting under With bold, delightfully detailed illustrations and a bouncy verse perfect for reading aloud, this wickedly funny mash-up of ¡°The Princess and the Pea¡± and ¡°There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly¡± will have little listeners clamoring for multiple helpings.
