Princess Pigtoria and the Pea by Pamela Edwards


Edwards, Pamela Duncan Princess Pigtoria and the Pea, illustrated by Henry Cole. Orchard (Scholastic), February 2010. $16.99. PICTURE BOOK. Prince Proudfoot is looking for a proper princess bride; Princess Pigtoria is hoping to find a prince who will help her restore her castle to its former glory. Both of them will discover that their expectations are not what they actually need. Funky, bright illustrations accompany the text of this altered version of The Princess and the Pea. It would make an amusing read aloud and contains some lessons about manners and choosing friends. EL (K-3) – OPTIONAL. Cindy, Library-Teacher.
