Product Description

You've probably heard of Queen Victoria... She's dead famous for marrying a chap called Albert, wearing black clothes - all the time, and for saying "We are not amused". But have you heard that Queen Vic went on her holidays in disguise, was best pals with her Scottish servant and loved playing cards...for money?

4.0 out of 5 stars A good 'follow-on' from the `Famous Lives/Famous People' series, for an older child., 27 Nov 2006
By ABCeDar - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
From the popular DEAD FAMOUS series of books `Queen Victoria and her Amusements`.

`Queen Victoria. This is probably how most people picture her:
A fat little old lady with a face that would turn milk sour. Victoria, as we all know, was dead famous for being strict, stuffy and disapproving. A queen who wore only black for 30 years and was as gloomy as a graveyard. Her most famous saying is:- `We are not amused!'.........
But was she really like that?......'

176 pages dedicated to the life of the English Queen. Split into chapters:-

Introduction
Timeline : Young Victoria
`We are Young' - Little Drina
`We are Queen' - Learning to rule
Timeline : Victoria and Albert
`We are a family - At home with Albert
`We are doing our duty' - Victoria at work
Timeline - Victoria alone
`We are in mourning' - Dead Albert lives
`We are an Empress' - The British Empire'
`We are Proud' - Glorious Victorians
`We are old' - The Jubilee years
`We are departed' - The end at last

Written in a variety of fonts with humorous black and white cartoon illustrations throughout, this is a good `follow-on' from the `Famous Lives/Famous People' series, for an older child.
