Princess and the Pea-tition: A Read with Jenna Junior Pick (Now upon a Time)
A Read With Jenna Junior 2025 Pick, as featured on The Today Show on NBC
Now an animated short film narrated by SNL’s Melissa Villaseñor!
“A must-read for young girls and anyone looking to harness their leadership potential for the greater good.”
― Erin Loos Cutraro, Founder & CEO, She Should Run
For fans of The Paper Bag Princess and She Persisted, this modern, laugh-out-loud retelling of The Princess and the Pea celebrates activism, equity, and the power of young voices.
Princess isn’t a princess―she’s just a girl named Princess. But after she unknowingly passes a peculiar test by sleeping on a stack of mattresses and a pea, she’s suddenly declared the future ruler of the land. Which doesn’t make sense to Princess.
Determined to challenge the unfair system, Princess starts The Pea-tition, aka The Petition to Eliminate Pea-Based Government in Favor of Elected Representative Leadership in This Land. Along her journey, she inspires the people and creatures of the kingdom to embrace democracy, question outdated traditions, and use their voices for good.
