Horrible Histories: Cruel Kings and Mean Queens (Horrible Histories Special)

Customer Reviews

Royalty as you have never seen it before! - By: Amazon Reviewer, 18 Jun 2004
The front cover features Henry VIII commenting to a 'head' in a basket- 'That'll Teach you to make Lumpy Custard'!
The typical humour of Terry Deary that makes one look forward to every title & the books are SO difficult to put down!
Great for new history readers & a handy reference/revision for 'older' readers, this book covers a multitude of grotty kings & gruesome queens, from 'William the Conqueror' to 'Lizzie the Last'!
The last paragraph of the book:- 'The Royals are as useless as they ever were.....but the Brits seem to like them that way.'

Hmmm - I wonder if we'll ever see 'Sir' Terry Deary on a 'Horrible History' cover?
