Review:

Prince Peter only likes eating three things, even though the palace cook tries her best to tempt him with delicious alternatives. When the people of the kingdom fall ill, Peter’s pickiness seems like a good thing, but in the end, he learns that he can only save the day if he is willing to face his fears. Parents and children alike will enjoy this story, full of beautiful illustrations, as they learn that sometimes it’s good to step outside of their comfort zone.

Atlas and His Amazing Adventure, Glenn and His Goat, Gwennie and the Great Green Forest, Hugo the Hero, Peter the Persnickety, and Princess Penny Saves the Day are part of The Good and the Beautiful Silver Tales Series. These hardcover Level 2 books with whimsical illustrations and uplifting messages are all original publications and can be read in any order.
