I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!

HRH: Queen Elizabeth by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara

#QueenElizabeth #NetGalley

It may be a coincidence that this entry in a favorite series is being published now. That timing is perfect though as many children are hearing a lot about the Queen following her funeral.

Elizabeth was an inspiration to many. In this Little People, Big Dreams book, readers will learn how a little girl, a lover of her ponies and dogs, had a life that changed quite dramatically. She became a Queen who served her people and inspired many.

The story of Elizabeth is told nicely. I love the accompanying illustrations. All in all, easy to recommend this one.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this title. All opinions are my own.
