Reading Notes: Hans Christian Andersen, Part A

The Princess and The Pea by Hans Christian Andersen




There once was a prince who really wanted to marry a REAL princess. Unfortunately, he never knew if the princesses he saw were real or not.

One night there was a storm, and a princess knocked on the door to get out of the bad elements. She told them that she was a princess.

To test this, the queen placed a pea under a bunch of mattresses that the princess was to sleep on. In the morning, they asked her how she slept. She complained that she didn't sleep well because she slept on something hard. This is how they knew she was a real princess, and she and the prince married.
