本書以《Princess and the Pea》為靈感，翻轉經典童話中「過度敏感」的公主形象，帶來一則幽默又帶點當代氣息的愛情故事。Prince Henrik 一心想找到一位與兄長王妃截然不同的伴侶——不嬌弱、不怕苦，最好熱愛戶外活動。於是，他將傳統的豌豆測試改成更「實際」的方法：把一整包冷凍豌豆塞進露營用的薄墊下，考驗前來求婚的公主們。結果，多數公主紛紛抱怨不適，直到 Henrik 的老朋友 Pippa 意外登場。她自在地搭帳篷、打曲棍球，甚至還能巧妙運用那包冷凍豌豆，展現出截然不同的生活態度。故事在輕快節奏中，傳達對多元氣質與真實自我的欣賞。插畫以拼貼、水粉與鉛筆線條構成，比例誇張、風格俏皮，為故事增添獨立電影般的幽默感。本書適合喜歡顛覆童話、欣賞不一樣公主形象的讀者。*]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" data-turn="assistant" data-scroll-anchor="true" data-testid="conversation-turn-60" data-turn-id="e03a0c23-03b5-42ec-b40a-1510b5e00568">In this playful, contemporary twist on The Princess and the Pea, Prince Henrik decides that traditional princesses are simply too sensitive for his taste.
