A joyous and delightful romp of a story for young readers

Based on a story by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont and retold by Neil Philip for contemporary young readers, Prince Zucchini is a delightful picture book story about a prince under an evil sorcerer's curse - he has a nose the size and shape of a zucchini! The king tries to compensate by persuading the prince that small noses are ugly and big noses are admired, but when the prince falls in love with a small-nosed princess, sparks fly and tables turn. Enhanced with the artwork of Veronica Rooney, Prince Zucchini is a wonderful, joyous and delightful romp of a story for young readers.
