I loved this 100+ page kid's book on Queen Elizabeth。 Well done with interesting pictures and fun facts not everyone knows about this remarkable woman。 Did you know that Queen Victoria was Great Great Grandmother to both Queen Elizabeth and her husband， Prince Phillip？ And one that I didn't know。。。。Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Elizabeth II both ascended the British throne at the age of 25。 Already plans are in motion for a 4 day celebration for Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee （70 years of r I loved this 100+ page kid's book on Queen Elizabeth。 Well done with interesting pictures and fun facts not everyone knows about this remarkable woman。 Did you know that Queen Victoria was Great Great Grandmother to both Queen Elizabeth and her husband， Prince Phillip？ And one that I didn't know。。。。Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Elizabeth II both ascended the British throne at the age of 25。 Already plans are in motion for a 4 day celebration for Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee （70 years of ruling Britain） in June of 2022。 。。。more

I am a huge royal follower and really enjoyed this biography of queen elizabeth。 I've only ventured into following the older royals in the past year or so， and this book definitely introduced new facts to me。 I especially enjoyed getting to know about her younger years before she was queen and the early years of her monarchy。 I am a huge royal follower and really enjoyed this biography of queen elizabeth。 I've only ventured into following the older royals in the past year or so， and this book definitely introduced new facts to me。 I especially enjoyed getting to know about her younger years before she was queen and the early years of her monarchy。 。。。more

Queen Elizabeth II is a great non-fiction read with some illustrations to go along with it。I adore reading about the royal family and the British line of royalty。 Their lives are very interesting， so it's nice to jump into a book about them。 This non-fiction book has some cheesy illustrations， but does a great job following Queen Elizabeth II's life。 I highly recommend picking this book up as a way to introduce yourself to the royals。Three out of five stars。Thank you to NetGalley and DK for prov Queen Elizabeth II is a great non-fiction read with some illustrations to go along with it。I adore reading about the royal family and the British line of royalty。 Their lives are very interesting， so it's nice to jump into a book about them。 This non-fiction book has some cheesy illustrations， but does a great job following Queen Elizabeth II's life。 I highly recommend picking this book up as a way to introduce yourself to the royals。Three out of five stars。Thank you to NetGalley and DK for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review。 。。。more

Let me tell you， I have read a lot of biographies， auto-biographies， and memoirs on royalty。 My main focus has been Queen Victoria， her descendants， and historic & current royalty from all over the world。 I have not limited my search of information on the topic having read books for kids， teens， and adults books on the subject。 Add to the reading， binging every documentary on monarch history。 I just find it fascinating。 With that in mind， I went into this read expecting to just see how the book Let me tell you， I have read a lot of biographies， auto-biographies， and memoirs on royalty。 My main focus has been Queen Victoria， her descendants， and historic & current royalty from all over the world。 I have not limited my search of information on the topic having read books for kids， teens， and adults books on the subject。 Add to the reading， binging every documentary on monarch history。 I just find it fascinating。 With that in mind， I went into this read expecting to just see how the book was designed for children and review a few facts。 Imagine my surprise at actually learning A LOT about Queen Elizabeth that I had never even known！ Yes， this book is written for youth， but it still exceptionally comprehensive。 。。。more
