| Description |
|
|
In large, beautifully ornate initials, with highly detailed background scenes, this book for readers 4 to 7 presents Elizabethan England through an alphabet of vocabulary words (and rhyming couplets) that would have been important in the late 16th century. Each double-page spread also includes historical notes that describe the queen, her reign, and her country as she tours it in her royal progress—a periodic grand tour that helped cement her authority.
