In this book from the internationally acclaimed Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of Queen Elizabeth II, the long-reigning monarch of the modern era. Little Elizabeth loved dogs and horses and dreamed of living on a farm. But one day, she heard voices in the streets. Her uncle Edgar had abdicated the throne, which meant her father would be the next king and she the heir to the throne. From that day on, she had to learn how to one day become queen. When she was just 13 years old, World War II broke out across the world. Elizabeth bravely served as an ambulance driver and after the war ended, she fell in love and married the charming Prince Philip. In 1952, she was crowned Queen of the United Kingdom and for the next 70 years she served as a beacon of continuity, caring for her subjects and serving the country she reigned over. This moving book includes stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the end, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the monarch's life.
