Peculiar Thing with the Pea Award-winning author by Claire Powell (author) and Kaye Umansky (author)

An unconventioanl princess meets a rather reluctant prince as queen of comedy Kaye Umansky returns with another hilarious twist on fairy tale tradition.

Prince Pete isn’t ready for marriage – he’s only eleven! And this peculiar business with the pea is the daftest thing he’s ever heard. Mother reckons she can find him the perfect royal bride and thinks the pea is the one true test. But when scruffy-looking Patsy comes along, claiming to be a princess, Mother’s careful scheming quickly turns to soup. A laugh-out-loud retelling of The Princess and the Pea like you’ve never heard it before! Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant or dyslexic readers aged 8+

Kaye Umanksy has written many books for children, from picture books to novels, and is probably best known for the Pongwiffy books.

As a child Kaye lived in Plymouth, Devon and spent lots of time on the beach. She was a bit of a daydreamer at school, but loved music and performing and writing her own stories.

She now lives in North London with her husband, daughter and two cats.
