Tanza Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I need to find a book for my 7-year old god daughter whose parents says is interested in the Tudors. They also say she isn't a very keen reader so I think the brief is I am to find a book on the Tudors, that's interesting enough for a 7 year old, but not too hard going. Hmmmm. And also it can't be from the Horrid History series as she has that already. Oh and a necklace, but luckily I've found one online.Any recommendations please as have left it v late and need to order quickly on Amazon to make her birthday in time. Are any of the following which I have found on Amazon suitable for a 7-year old - Tudor Stories for Girls - Alison Price or Elizabeth (My Royal Story), a Tudor Princess's diary byt Kathryn Lasky? There's no reviews on Amazon to say what age they are for, and I don't want to risk sending a Tudor romp by accident.

Ondine Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Don't know either of these but have a look at horrible history series. They're bound to have one on the Tudors which might draw her into reading as they are very funny Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/13106-tudor-book-recommendations-for-7-year-old-girl/#findComment-358018 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanza Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 These are great suggestions, thank you. Like the look of the Time Travelling one in particular.I've also found something that looks good for the 6/7 year old range -Brilliant Brits : Henry VIII by Richard Brassey. There's also one on Elizabeth 1. All well illustrated and quite easy looking, bite-sized chunks of info. Doesn't look too off putting for an unconfident reader.Appreciated!
