The Princess and the Pea
A prince travelled the world to find a real princess to be his bride, but none of them would quite do. One night during a massive storm a girl knocked on the door claiming to be a princess from down the road looking for shelter. The queen was sceptical so placed a pea under the mattress of the spare bed. Then she piled more and more mattresses onto the bed so that it was so high the girl needed a ladder to climb into bed. Only a real princess will feel the pea under that many mattresses thought the queen. The next morning the queen asked the girl how she had slept and she complained bitterly about a hard lump in the bed. The queen was delighted and presented the girl to the prince. This is a real princess, she said. The prince was delighted and the two got married and lived happily ever after.

Ladybird Keyword Stories
Key Words are the most frequently occurring words in the English language and research has shown that a few of these key English words form a high proportion of those in everyday use. The Key Words with Peter and Jane books introduce the key words gradually and then repeat them frequently, thereby building confidence in children when they recognise these key words on sight. There are 12 levels in the scheme, each with 3 books (a,b,c). Series a gradually introduces and repeats new words; series b provides further practice of these same words but in a different context and with different illustrations; series c invites children to try writing the words and introduces reading using phonics, allowing them to decode increasingly difficult words.
