The Princess and the Pea
By Francis Fifelski, Age 7
Prince Hamburg was looking all over the world for a real princess. Each king said he had a real princess, but, the prince feared they were not real. Soon he gave up and he went back to the Castle.
Then there was a knock at the palace gate. There was a princess, wet with rain! She came in the castle. The queen gave her a high bed and placed a tiny pea under the lowest mattress. (It was a test to see if she was a real princess.)
The next morning she woke pale. The queen asked, “Did you sleep well last Night?” “No! There was a big lump in my bed. You can’t sleep with it,” said the princess. The prince and queen jumped for joy. For that was the end of their search .They knew that a real princess would feel the tiny pea like a big lump.
THE END
