See life through the eyes of one of the most unfortunate people in European history - Mary, Queen of Scots! Crowned as a baby, widowed at 18, schemed against in your own country and menaced by the superpower next door - your life is not going to be a bed of roses. The humorous cartoon-style illustrations and the narrative approach encourage readers to get emotionally involved with the characters, aiding their understanding of what life would have been like as Mary, Queen of Scots.
