Twisted Tales
The Princess and The Pea
Resources Include a PDF document which can be displayed on an interactive board so that it can be used as a class reader or printed off to be read to the class. The story is in five sections to be read over five days. To promote class discussion and debate, a Powerpoint presentation is also included. It contains five open ended questions for each section of the story.
This Twisted Tale recounts an alternative version of The Princess and The Pea Fairy Tale, a prince must seek out a suitable bride or risk losing the kingdom. There is a happy ending of sorts, but not everyone gets what they feel they should have a right to. One has to ask if it is the sort of ending you would expect in a tale where everything should end happily ever after.

I bought this as a bit of a fun gap filler for after SAT’s. I wish I had known about them before. The children are really enjoying the story and the daily choice of five, open ended, questions to go with each day’s reading are great. Lots of discussion so far and well worth the paltry £1 fee. Highly recommended. I shall buy more.
