In a quest to find a true princess to marry the prince, seven sisters from another kingdom are invited to stay at the royal castle and sleep on a pile of mattresses with a pea under one of the mattresses. The law states that a true princess will be able to sense the pea and not be able to sleep on such an uncomfortable bed. The ranting and raving about the horribly lumpy bed reveals that there are many true princesses! With so many choices, how will the prince decide who he should marry? A fun addition to your children's bedtime stories. Great for kids 4-8 years old.
