Book Description:
|
In this unusual picture book, designed to resemble the seven-story apartment building in which it is set, a little girl's sleep is disrupted by her very rowdy neighbors. To her consternation, and to the reader's delight, those neighbors turn out to be characters from six well-known stories - including Jack of beanstalk fame, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and Cinderella. And the seventh? It turns out to be the heroine herself, who has a pea under her mattress.
