That’s because this book focuses on her whole life-a little, outgoing girl, a young, energetic princess and the magnificent queen devoted to our country. It contains a special story written to celebrate the Queen’s 70 year reign by one of my favourite authors Micheal Morpurgo and beautifully illustrated with watercolour drawings by Micheal Foreman.We are experiencing delays with deliveries to many countries, but in most cases local services have now resumed. Morpurgo sums up our beautiful, kind and hardworking queen in simple yet stunning words, making the book a wonderful piece for children and adults alike. He has written well over 130 books, many of which have been adapted for film, theatre and TV, and won many prizes, including the Smarties Prize, the Blue Peter Book Award and the Whitbread Award.
