What I was actually looking for was a picture book. Or at least, a high-illustrated non-fic. There was no chance my very active under-sixes were going to sit and listen to a 200 page novel, no matter how much I wanted a resource to highlight the Platinum Jubilee. But the cover begged me.<\/p>\n
\u201cWay too old for my kids. But you know, I<\/em> might like it,\u201d I ventured.<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, that\u2019s what I thought,\u201d the librarian replied.<\/p>\n Apparently, she knows me too well!<\/p>\n When I took Wartime Princess<\/em> out of the library, I wasn\u2019t really planning to review it. However, I ended up enjoying it so much I wanted to share it with all of you. And today, as the world reflects on the life of one of the greatest sovereigns Britain has ever known, it seems like the perfect time to highlight this story of the girlhood that made Queen Elizabeth II.<\/p>\n WWII changed life for everyone in 1940s Britain\u2014from Blitz-shaken Londoners to the two young Princesses hidden in Windsor Castle. In this diary-style novel by Valerie Wilding, Princess Margaret Rose tells a first-person story of Royal life before, during, and after the war, as two ordinary little girls grow into young women destined to shape their century. Whether you are laughing out loud at Margaret\u2019s comical descriptions, or mourning with her over heartbreaking sufferings around the world, Wartime Princess<\/em> is a story you won\u2019t forget.<\/p>\n This book is incredibly well-researched and at the same time delightfully readable. It\u2019s sensitive treatment of WWII makes it a fabulous history tie-in. Altogether, Wartime Princess<\/em> just might be my favourite public library find of the year.<\/p>\n Plot Development\u20147\/10<\/p>\n Character Development\u20148\/10<\/p>\n Command of Language\u20147\/10<\/p>\n Impact of the book\u20148\/10<\/p>\n Originality\u20145\/10<\/p>\n Innocence regarding evil\u20146\/10<\/p>\n Active promotion of good\u20146\/10<\/p>\n Level of spiritual challenge\u20144\/10<\/p>\n Healthy view of life\u20146\/10<\/p>\n Honouring God\u20144\/10<\/p>\nBook Details<\/strong><\/h5>\n
