A good introduction to history - Rated
This book is, contrary to some views, a very good read. It is designed to make learning about the "Terrible" Tudors fun, and it achieves this with flying colours.
The book not only introduces the monarchs of the time, such as the infamous Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I, but also what conditions were like to live and work, what food there was available, and some Terrible Tudor customs!
Overall, a perfect book to read for children and teenagers alike, combining Terry Deary's perfect humour with facts which will stick with the reader for the rest of their lives!
A fun and very knowledgeable book!! - Rated
I found this book very easy to read. It's one of those books you can open any page and just start reading-it kept me happy for hours! It also has very useful and useless facts. It's all put in a very funny and readable style of writing.
