Genre:
Fairy Tale


Summary:
In The Princess and the Pea a prince wants to marry a true princess, but all the princess he meets have something wrong with them that disqualify them from that description. On a stormy night, there is a pounding on the door and the king lets in a princess who need refuge from the storm. The queen decides to test to see if she is a true princess so she puts a pea under 20 matresses and 20 eider-down beds.In the morning, the princess is exhausted because the pea kept her up all night. The prince marries her and puts the pea in a museum.
Recommendations and Conflicts:
I would recommend this fairy tale to anyone who is interested in fairy tales. I haven't found anything in this fairy tale that would cause problems or conflicts.
Reaction:
This fairy tale didn't have much of  a plot or enough time in the story to develop the characters. The reason I felt the characters were developed is because I am familiar with different versions of The Princess and The Pea.
