"Jang's vibrant digital art depicts lush palace grounds, richly colored hanboks, and a royal wedding befitting a princess, all while firmly anchoring the story in Korean history. Young readers will delight in seeing Jeongsoon prevail; her triumph will feel especially poignant for those who share her cultural background." -- Kirkus " This twist on 'The Princess and the Pea' in a historically inspired Korean setting offers a fresh perspective on what makes a fairy-tale princess. [Jeongsoon's] compassion is as winning as her eventual, well-deserved triumph." -- BCCB " The artwork features gorgeous details of Korean culture. This charming Korean retelling of a familiar story is refreshingly adapted and will have listeners in story hours clamoring for more."-- School Library Journal.
