Description
When a sensitive prince goes searching far and wide for a bride, his tender heart can
hardly bear the disappointment. He meets beautiful princesses all over the world, but
none is the right one for him. But one stormy night, a girl with eyes the colour of the
rain appears at the palace door seeking shelter. The queen makes up a bed for her,
and slips a single green pea under the mattress. Could she be the one the prince has
been looking for? Xanthe Gresham’s lyrical prose brings rich detail and depth to this
beloved Hans Christian Andersen story.
