This is a look at the biography of some queens throughout world history, some quite well-known as Queen Elizabeth, and others not so much as Lakṣmībāī.
Is this aimed at a teen audience? I'm not sure, but the language is complicated for younger children. I had some problems to see some characters in the color of some pages, but that can be a problem of my pdf copy.
Anyway, it does not contribute much to what you can be found in wiki, with enough known data and trivia. But maybe that can point you to go looking for more things about some character you did not know?
Nice pictures. But I'm sorry, I was not impressed.
(I miss Sultana Kosem in this look at remarkable women ;) )
Ah, y Juana la Loca probablemente fue recluida solamente para quitarla del camino del trono , y no por estar enferma como decian :/
