A charming beautifully illustrated book originally written for English school children. Edith Nesbit attempts and succeeds to make the history of the English royal children (Prince and Princesses) appealing to young readers by putting it into language they could understand. This version of the book starts with Alfred the Great and ends with Elizabeth Tudor. It covers the life and times of thirteen different children some of them siblings. Some of the stories are heart wrenching of course. It was often dangerous to be born with power to rule at a young age. Could be a interesting resource for adults as well as children.
