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.

This charming book beautifully captures the life of the late Queen Elizabeth II for readers 4 through 7.

Part of the beloved Little People, Big Dreams series, the story is told through colorful illustrations and text, black and white photos, a detailed timeline, plus the Queen's beloved corgis scattered throughout, giving readers a profound sense of her challenges and joys from childhood through 70 years as Britain's longest-reigning monarch. Highly recommended!

Thanks to the author, illustrator, Quarto Publishing Group – Frances Lincoln Children's Books, Frances Lincoln Children's Books, and NetGalley for the ARC. Opinions are mine.
