Book Description
Princess Florizella is no ordinary fairy-tale princess. She doesn't sit around the palace looking pretty and waiting for her prince to come. She's much too busy riding her horse Jellybean, swimming underwater with her eyes open or looking for adventure with her best friend, Prince Bennett.

Book Description
"Princess Florizella is an extremely unusual princess! She wears patched jeans, and she climbs trees. She rides her horse Jellybean, and she goes on picnics. She doesn't care how she looks and worst of all for her parents who wanted an ordinary fairy-tale princess, she won't be rescued by anybody, and she won't get married."--Page [i].

Book Description
Mr Pam Pam and his baby are regular visitors to the house of the boy who narrates this story. Mr Pam Pam is very tall with stringy arms and legs and he says his favourite food is banana ice-cream with gravy. But then Mr Pam Pam says lots of things that you cannot be sure are true. He says, for instance, that he's seen a Hullabazoo with yellow hands and a green moustache, a bouncing, twizzling Hullabazoo. But whenever the boy looks where Mr Pam Pam tells him to, the Hullabazoo has always gone. But one day there is the Hullabazoo, just as Mr Pam Pam described him, wearing purple socks and a flat orange cap with a star on the top, and the small boy is truly amazed.

Book Description
The final book of the Tudor series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Philippa Gregory features one of the most famous women in history, Lady Jane Grey, and her two sisters, each of whom dared to defy her queen. Jane Grey was queen of England for nine days. Her father and his allies crowned her instead of the dead king’s half-sister Mary Tudor, who quickly mustered an army, claimed her throne, and locked Jane in the Tower of London. When Jane refused to betray her Protestant faith, Mary sent her to the executioner’s block, where Jane transformed her father’s greedy power-grab into tragic martyrdom. “Learn you to die,” was the advice Jane wrote to her younger sister Katherine, who has no intention of dying. She intends to enjoy her beauty and her youth and fall in love. But she is heir to the insecure and infertile Queen Mary and then to her sister Queen Elizabeth, who will never allow Katherine to marry and produce a Tudor son. When Katherine’s pregnancy betrays her secret marriage, she faces imprisonment in the Tower, only yards from her sister’s scaffold. “Farewell, my sister,” writes Katherine to the youngest Grey sister, Mary. A beautiful dwarf, disregarded by the court, Mary keeps family secrets, especially her own, while avoiding Elizabeth’s suspicious glare. After seeing her sisters defy their queens, Mary is acutely aware of her own danger, but determined to command her own life. What will happen when the last Tudor defies her ruthless and unforgiving cousin Queen Elizabeth?

Book Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author Philippa Gregory joins two eminent historians to explore the extraordinary true stories of three women largely forgotten by history: Jacquetta, Duchess of Bedford; Elizabeth Woodville, queen of England; and Margaret Beaufort, the founder of the Tudor dynasty. In her essay on Jacquetta, Philippa Gregory uses original documents, archaeology, and histories of myth and witchcraft to create the first-ever biography of the young duchess who survived two reigns and two wars to become the first lady at two rival courts. David Baldwin, established authority on the Wars of the Roses, tells the story of Elizabeth Woodville, the first commoner to marry a king of England for love. And Michael Jones, fellow of the Royal Historical Society, writes of Margaret Beaufort, the almost-unknown matriarch of the House of Tudor. Beautifully illustrated throughout with rare portraits and source materials, The Women of the Cousins’ War offers fascinating insights into the inspirations behind Philippa Gregory’s fiction and will appeal to all with an interest in this epic period.
