Alison Prince has done a really good job with this book. The story is well written and captures life in Tudor times well. The images and timelines featured after the diary enhance the educational benefits too. Any young person who is finding history boring should grap a copy of the My Story diaries and may be plesantly suprised.

I really enjoyed this book. Having worked with children in various capacities for many years I find reading young people books a great was to engage with them. These days I think there is a greater crossover between books written for young people and adults (Rowling and Pullman are further examples of this)

This book leads on from 'My Tudor Queen' which is the diary of Elinor's mother Eva and Queen Katherine of Aragon. Although of course there wasn't the depth that you would find in a Philippa Gregory novel (which is of course written for the adult market) you do get a sense of the times and how difficult life was for everyone with such a fickle King on the throne.… (altro)

"Sextonåriga Kerry, som bor på en liten ö utanför Skottland, håller oron för sin sjuka mamma hemlig för alla hon känner. Hon kan inte ens prata om det med sin pappa. Men så lär hon känna den jämnårige Paul, som dyker upp som turist på ön, och han får Kerry att erkänna det hon innerst inne alltid har vetat om …"

Elinor Valjean is a young girl in the court of Henry VIII serving Katherine of Aragon and then Anne Boleyn. She sees the drama unfold as Henry wants Anne for his wife, her rise and then fall.

This was a wondeful little read from The My Story collection. I think it's a great way for children to learn about history. Although it is a book aimed at the younger person as an adult I enjoyed it.

Elinor tells what she sees over a decade or so watching the goings on around her. In the meantime she grows up, gets married and has children. Along side Anne Boleyn whose marriage is not happy and she can't give Henry the family he wants, where as Elinor has a happy marriage.

This story is a quick read about Anne Boleyn and covers all the main points. Elinor has a chatty narrative and she doesn't like Anne Boleyn, with her version making Anne guilty where as some accounts Anne is innocent.

I really enjoyed this quick read and will read more of the My Story collection.
