Book Synopsis



A beloved version of the classic Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale with soft, traditional illustrations by Maja Dusíková


Once upon a time a prince was looking for a princess to marry, but she would have to be a real princess. One stormy night a young woman knocks on the palace door claiming to be a princess. Putting her to the test, the queen places a single pea underneath a huge pile of mattresses. Is the young woman a real princess after all?



Review Quotes




'Dusíková's pictures are full of soft edges and soft colours... A rendering to bring a smile or possibly a giggle.'--Kirkus Reviews
