( ) Summary: This diary follows the young Victoria, who is in line after several of her fathers brothers for the Throne of England. Personal Reaction: I think this is a great coming of age story. I believe how Victoria is presented shows her age maturing throughout the duration of the story, and shows her struggle at not being permitted to be by herself. Classroom extensions: A great project for the class to do would be to review favorite past times from the Victorian era, such as catching butterflies and the bicycles they used. I think it would be great to have students look at things they do and compare them to traditional things children did in that time period. Young Princess Victoria thinks that being a princess is not that simple. You always have your governess telling you what to do, people running around the house, meeting uninteresting people… Victoria just wants some privacy and time to herself! So she steals a book and uses it as her diary and writes all her thoughts into it. She writes about life at the palace, what she learned, vacation time and more. She is constantly learning something new and she doesn’t understand why until she discovers that she is next in line for the throne. This is a great introduction to Queen Victoria’s childhood through a diary. She writes about her feeling and what it was like to be a princess. Some parts of the diary are very simple (like the things she ate for breakfast) but some are very detailed (when she finds out about her future). Young readers will love young Victoria and her lifestyle. Even though it is written in a diary form, the flow of the story is very consistent, with bits of comic relief in the middle. At the end of the book, there is a short historical note about Queen Victoria’s life as well as some photographs that are related. They also include the Royal Family Tree and the readers will see how the crown was passed down to Queen Victoria. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
