’Whimsical, colorful artwork turns this into a fun story….This spirited title will work in a food-themed storytime and is perfect for parenting sections.’—School Library Journal
Once upon a time there was a princess named Penelopea. Penelopea lived in Capital Pea, where people eat peas by the pound—pureed, poached, and pan-fried! There was just one problem. Penelopea
hated peas. So she came up with a plan to make the king and queen think she had eaten her peas, but it led to a catastropea of epic proportions!
Eventually, in an effort to make peas disappear from the kingdom forever, she tries just one pea…then another…then another…and discovers they are positively pea-licious after all. Includes a section for parents and caregivers with ideas for introducing picky eaters to new foods, and encouraging children to eat a variety of healthy foods.
