Once upon a time there was a princess named Penelopea. Penelopea lived in Capital Pea, where people eat peas by the pound-pureed, poached, and pan-fried! There was just one problem. Penelopea hated peas. So she came up with a plan to make the king and queen think she had eaten her peas, but it led to a catastropea of epic proportions!
Eventually, in an effort to make peas disappear from the kingdom forever, she tries just one pea amp hellip then another amp hellip then another amp hellip and discovers they are positively pea-licious after all. Includes a section for parents and caregivers with ideas for introducing picky eaters to new foods, and encouraging children to eat a variety of healthy foods.
