The Princess and the Peanut Allergy by: Wendy McClure

This was a book I chose for my study buddy to read because she likes princess stories and I actually thought it was pretty good. It tells a story about two friends and how a girl named Regina was going to have a party and in her cake there was peanuts and peanut butter. But she found out her best friend Paula was allergic to peanuts. It turns out Regina gets mad at Paula because she wants her party exactly how she likes it, but then later realizes that it is important to her that her best friend Paula can come to the party and eat cake. The story is for younger kids so even if it sounds silly to older children it can send a pretty good message to young children. It shows that friendship is important and that a little sacrifice can go a long way.. I really like how the illustrations are done and how the text stands out against them making it easy to read and follow.
