🎅First of the Christmas books going out tomorrow

🎅All books are gift wrapped as I believe books should always been a gift; reading should not be a chore for children

Today we visited Stoneclough Stories - Pop Up Children’s Library . What a lovely community event this is. We read stories, had a cup of tea and ate some cake.
It was also a great social event for Evelyn too. We will be back next time.

I love a little bit of history, especially when it is written through poetry 👌

From William I
Who conquered the land,
To William II -
Was that “accident” planned?
Henry I
Left the succession in doubt,
Leaving Stephen and Matilda
To battle it out.

Henry II
Brought justice and law.
Richard I
Went crusading for war.
Then came John,
His reign was a shower,
Though Henry, his boy,
Would cling on to power.

Edward I
Hammer of the Scots
Poor Edward II -
That poker looked hot!
Edward III,
What a chivalrous reign,
Besting the French
On every campaign!

Richard II
For his tyranny and sin,
Was duly deposed
By Henry, his kin.
Henry V took England to war,
The conqueror! The Victor!
Of Agincourt.

The wars of the roses
Went back and forth
‘Till poor Henry sixth
Fell to Edward the fourth.
Edward V should have
Ascended the throne.
But his usurping uncle
Took it for his own!

Then one day
At Bosworth field
The mighty Plantagenets,
Did finally yield.
Uniting the roses
Of white and red
Henry VII
Struck King Richard dead!

Henry VIII
Took wife after wife
Edward and Mary -
Religion and strife!
Good Queen Bess
Brought England her glory,
But we must borrow from Scotland
To continue the story!

James I
Ruled Celts and Angles
Avoiding the thorniest
Of political tangles.
With Charles I
Defeat did beckon,
But it was time to party
With Charles II.

James II -
The last Catholic ever.
William and Mary,
Took the throne together.
After Anne, the Queen
(Ignoring Jacobite defectors)
We turn to Germany
And Hanovers’ electors.

George I -
Missing in action.
The second no better -
The head of a faction!
The third seized power
Whatever the cost.
Madness descended!
America lost!

George IV
And a time of disgrace.
William the sailor
Helped to save face.
Queen Victoria,
A new age was dawning.
But little could amuse
An empress in mourning!

Edward VII
Of gregarious fame.
George V
Changed the family name.
Edward VIII
Who followed his heart
Burdening a brother
Not born for the part.

George VI
Our strength at war
What nobler a servant,
Could have served any more?
With Elizabeth the great
Now Queen in the heavens,
We cry, “God Save the King!”
And a new reign beckons.
