Elizabeth I: Red Rose of the House of Tudor, England, 1544 Audiobook

" Love this series - great resources in the back "

" This historical fiction book by Kathren Lasky is written in the form of a diary. It takes you through what it's like to be a princess that can be exiled and removed from the line of succesion by the will of her father.Thought to be the daughter of a witch Anne Bolynn, Elizabeth writes about her life, sometimes at Hatfield,other times at court. Her best friend Robin is not left out of the mix. Includes a Historical Note and her strong will to never marry. "

" The book is the fictional diary of Queen Elizabeth 1 before she was queen, when she was still a teenager. The book was thoroughly enjoyable, and I liked it. It was a good read, and at the end had a few historical notes as well as pictures of Queen Elizabeth in different stages of her life, with captions stating what age she was, etc, which was fun to read. I liked it. "

" it was really great! "

" Okay overall. Sometimes the nagging about Princess Mary got repetitive, but this is probably because I read a similar book in Mary's point of view first. Interesting series. Recommend for younger readers. "

" Children's historical fiction of a Queen of England when she was their age. Humanizes this time period. "

" I love the history of Queen Elizabeth, I have great respect for her and reign over England. She is a woman that I love to read about and learn about, so this diary of hers when she was younger even made me like her more. "

" I LOVED this book. I don't know if that because I love history or what but I do love it. This book makes me feel like I am Elizabeth and not me anymore. Mrs. Lasky does a really good job in describing how she thinks Elizabeth would feel. She did a great job. Keep writing Mrs.Lasky! "
