Product Description
Book Description
A sparkling, new edition of the affectionate, funny classic story: the perfect book for every child to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
Product Description
It's a busy year for the Queen - she has lots of important events to attend. Meanwhile, a little girl is wondering what knickers Her Majesty will choose to wear on a school visit! Will they be her 'at home' knickers - adorned with corgis - or her 'garden party' knickers, or perhaps her woolly Balmoral ones...?
Both children and adults will love this very special and endearing insight into a child's imagination, from the best-selling author-illustrator of Father Christmas Needs A Wee and Jesus' Christmas Party.
Recently, the Queen visited a nursery in Norfolk and enjoyed a display based on the book:
"...just to make it special, there was one element that was not quite so traditional: pants. These were not just any pants, either. They were the Queen's Knickers, and at Dersingham Infant and Nursery School, in Norfolk, they were put on special display in honour of their royal visitor" ~ Valentine Low, The Times

I read this book to my class of infants (4-7 year olds), and they thought it was wonderful! They especially loved the slightly risque title. There was quite a lot of giggling when they heard it. Anything to do with bottoms always goes down well! A whole story about knickers couldn't fail to appeal. The class was already a big fan of Nicholas Allen...they particularly love "Jesus'Christmas Party". We used it for our Nativity Play, and The Queen's Knickers has joined it on their favourite story list. The illustrations are extremely good and very funny. This book is going in our Story Sack Library where it is sure to be constantly out on loan!

I first read this book with the children I teach in a Reception Class in a village school. Not only did the children thoroughly enjoy the book, ( it was read on several occasions at storytime) but I then went out to buy it for myself and will be giving it as presents for all my adult friends! Altogether a great read, very humorous and well worth a look.

Any mention of the word "knickers" is guaranteed to get small people giggling. This book certainly captured the imagination of my 3 year old, although I think I probably found it even funnier than he did!
This is a charming and beautifully illustrated book - BUY IT!

Not too much of a story
Purchased this after 'Father Christmas needs a wee', which was very good. However, despite my daughter laughing at the title of this book, i certainly don't think it retained her... Read more
