- Book 3 of 3: Fact-tastic Stories from Scotland's History
This unique blend of fact and fiction brings Mary, Queen of Scots to life for young readers.
She was Queen of Scotland and of France, and a possible Queen of England; she was involved in a series of mysterious deaths; in the end she lost her head... But what was life really like for Mary, Queen of Scots?
Put on your ruff and step into the 16th century for a unique glimpse into the dramatic life of the infamous queen. Mary's story is told from the perspective of her young servant Alec, keeper of her animals. Each easy-to-read chapter mixes the involving history of the queen's life with timelines, charts and revealing illustrations to create a Fact-tastic account that is both fun and emotionally engaging for younger readers.
Take a journey through time and find out:
- How did Mary become Queen of Scots when she was just six days old?
- What exotic animals lived with the young queen?
- How did Mary escape from Lochleven Castle?
- Why did Mary's cousin, Queen Elizabeth I, arrange her beheading?
The Amazing Life of Mary, Queen of Scots continues the brilliant Fact-tastic series, which blends intriguing facts and fascinating fiction to bring the most exciting, gruesome and crucial moments of Scottish history alive for young readers.
