This is probably my favorite fairy tale and I love the clever variations modern authors have come up with.  Watch Liza Minelli in Fairy Tale Theater, for example.  The divergence from the original here isn't extreme, but it's charming.  And the technique will intrigue boys & girls, and give teachers ideas for writing prompts.  Funny.  Worthy of being impulsively purchased at the grocery store's periodic overstock sale.

Nice retelling of the princess and the pea ... told from multiple perspectives. Good school age story. ( )
