The Pancake Princess – by Tiziana Ciccone and Franca Linardi.

The delightful tale The Pancake Princess follows the antics of a Princess and her odd eating habits.

Obsessed with pancakes, she commands the entire kingdom to eating nothing but! Eventually her parents, the King and Queen, tire of the gooey mess and order the Royal Cook to make new foods.

Against his better judgment, the Cook follows the King’s orders and prepares one hundred new dishes for the Princess to sample, but she doesn’t like a single one. The King and Queen send the Cook packing.

Frustrated with the situation, The Pancake Princess travels to the local village in search of a new cook, but finds it deserted. All the villagers, save one young boy, have scurried into their homes, afraid of the Princess’ terrible wrath. Much to her amazement, the boy is eating a bologna sandwich. Guess what happens when he stuffs the sandwich into the Princess’ mouth!
