In celebration of the incredible life of HM Queen Elizabeth II,
here is the history of her reign, told through the enthralling life
stories of The Queen and 25 amazing people who have called Britain
home. The reign of HM Queen Elizabeth II has been long and
eventful. Over the past 70 years, Great Britain has seen incredible
changes in the ways we live, think and feel, shaped by the
inspiring people who were born in Britain or arrived on its shores.
As we commemorate the Queen's life and reign, learn about her
extraordinary life and 25 other amazing history-makers - from
modern pioneers, leaders and scientists to writers, athletes and
activists - in this fully updated new special edition paperback.
Each beautifully illustrated page spread is devoted to a tale of an
incredible Briton, told by talented writer and children's book
critic Imogen Russell Williams and brought to life by Sara
Mulvanny's vivid colour illustration. The book also features a
gloriously illustrated timeline, showing key events from Queen
Elizabeth's long reign. Discover the life-changing events of the
last 70 years, from the foundation of the NHS by Aneurin Bevan to
the creation of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine by Sarah Gilbert.
Learn about how amazing activists like Paul Stephenson and Malala
Yousafzai fought hard for equal rights for all, and scientists like
Stephen Hawking and Tim Berners-Lee made incredible advances that
allowed us to know more about the universe, or communicate in a
whole new way via the Internet. Find out about the fantastic
achievements of athletes like Mo Farah and Tanni Grey-Thompson and
writers like Judith Kerr and Lemn Sissay, despite the challenges
they faced. The tales include key figures from all areas of British
life - science, medicine, entertainment, sports, activism and more.
Featuring the inspirational lives and achievements of amazing
people such as Alan Turing, Kelly Holmes, Stormzy and Anita
Roddick, this book is not only a glorious celebration of Queen
Elizabeth's life and reign, but also the citizens who have
contributed to such an incredible 70 years on the throne.

one where the hero is YOU. Woken one night by a bang at the door, you

looks up and beckons you down. What do you do? The choice is yours.
Open the door, play for time, or escape through the window out back...

and sky, the mysteries of your past are revealed, and it becomes clear

of the entire kingdom. Bringing together a sweeping story, beautifully
illustrated picture puzzles and an exciting combat system, this is an
adventure that will have you gripped from beginning to end.
