Rumors

Really really old rumors. ;)

The Raucous Royals by Carlyn Beccia
5 Stars
Picture Book

When I read the review HERE I knew I had to read this one. I mean, what self-respecting Humanities nerd would pass up the chance to read all about history's most prevalent rumors? And in picture book form? Awesome.

Boo has asked to read this book more than once already. (Though "reading" it to her doesn't really mean reading, we just kind of flip through it and laugh at the funny pictures.)

Was Napoleon really short? Did Anne Boleyn really have 6 fingers? Which of Henry VIII's wives was beheaded with an ax?

I'm not going to tell you, you'll have to read it yourself. :D
