Can't You Make Them Behave, King George? - Jean Fritz

Descriere

All King George III ever wanted was for everyone to be as conscientious as he was about obeying the rules! After all, he followed the rules for being a good king, so why were those pesky Americans causing so much trouble? This entertaining volume, by Newbery Honor-winning author Jean Fritz, sheds light on the life of England's King George III. It begins when he was a bashful boy who blushed easily, goes on to his early days as king, and finally examines his role in the American Revolution - when Americans ceased to think of him as good King George. Fascinating history made accessible for young readers. The lively text includes plenty of amusing, personality-revealing anecdotes . . .-- Children's Literature
