4.0 out of 5 stars Just enough detail..........for the younger child., 13 Nov 2006
By A B CeDar - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
From the popular Famous People/Famous Lives series of books: No. 26 - HENRY VIII.

'Henry is a clever and fun-loving king. But he has one great sadness in his life. He and his wife Catherine do not have a son. In order to marry another wife, Henry makes huge changes to the Church in England, so that he can divorce Catherine. He goes on to marry five other women in his lifetime. During his reign he builds England up into a powerful country.'

48 high quality pages in a clear, easy-to-read text and appealing black and white illustrations, finishing with a useful timeline, details just enough information to keep the attention of the younger child and make a lasting impression.
