Who is Queen Elizabeth II? / by Megan Stine ; illustrated by Laurie A. Conley.
"In 1936, the life of ten-year-old Princess Elizabeth of York changed forever. Although she was a member of the British royal family, she never expected to become queen. But when her uncle Edward gave up the throne, suddenly her father was the new king, which meant young Elizabeth was next in line! Queen Elizabeth has reigned since 1953, and while there are palaces galore, the crown jewels, and trips around the world, her life has been one of strict discipline and duty. This riveting chronicle follows the life of a woman who is a public figure and an intensely private person and explores how she has kept the monarchy together through good times and bad."-- Provided by publisher.
