Queen Elizabeth book

Loading...

Soon, your child will receive a book to commemorate the once in a life time memorable moment of the Queen's Jubilee. It will help your child understand the amazing life and time of our Queen and the magic of the unique, unshakable bond she shares with the people she serves. They'll discover the rich history of the UK and Commonwealth and meet a few of the incredible achievers who have helped to make the 70 years of the Queen's reign so eventful and extraordinary. 

The Platinum Jubilee not only honours Her Majesty's long and loyal service, but also the resilient, diverse, and inclusive communities that we live in. It is a time for us all to come together -and celebrate!
