Review of Book

This book was jam-packed with information. It covered all the important topics about Queen Elizabeth's life. There were so many vivid pictures, and they were all real! The downside is that it only gave the general idea about her life, and if there were specifics, they weren't important at all. I would read another of John Malam's books if I ever want a source with the overview.

Describing Her and the Effects on the World or Other People

I could be described as generous because I support more then 700 different organazations and charaties worldwide. I am brave because in 1945, when I was young, I joined the Army. I am currently the head of Britain's Army, Navy, and Air Force.
When I was princess and discovered that I would become queen someday, I had to study all the everything about being a queen and ruling a kingdom. Thus, I am very educated.

Special and Interesting Information

I married Philip of Greece in 1947. One year later, my first child, Prince Charles, was born. Anne wasborn in 1950, Andrew was born in 1960, and Edward was born in 1965. In 1952 my father fell ill, and died soon after. I became queen, and my coronation was on Tuesday, June 2, 1953 in Westminster Abbey, London.
