description: When a prince sets out to find a princess to marry he soon discovers this is not a simple task. There is no shortage of so-called princesses but how can he tell whether or not they are what they claim to be? Then one night a great storm rages there's a knock on the palace gate and the prince's life is never the same. Caldecott Honors-winning artist Rachel Isadora exquisitely illustrates this retelling of the classic Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale and takes readers to a beautiful African setting--a first for the ?true story? of a tiny pea that changed everything.
