King George V 1911-1936

George V (George Frederick Ernest Albert; 3 June 1865 – 20 January 1936) was King of the United Kingdom and Emperor of India, from 6 May 1910 until his death in 1936. George V was born 3rd inline to the throne behind his father Prince Albert Edward (King Edward VII), and elder brother Prince Albert Victor. Eddy (Prince Albert Victor) as referred to by later biographers died in 1892 just 28yrs old falling prey to the influenza pandemic of 1889-1892. His short life was not without scandal having been named by male prostitutes under interrogation in 1889.

In 1917 George V became the first monarch of the House of Windsor, which he renamed from the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha as a result of anti-German public sentiment. George V's reign saw the rise of socialism and the Labour movement which would radically change the political landscape.

Enchanting, imaginative sibling story
Format: Hardcover
"Frostfire" is an enchanting, cozy story about sibling bonds and a hopeful search for magic. Sister foxes Celeste and Miriam are out for a walk in a silvery wonderland of snow. Suddenly, they hear a deep grumble. "That was the roar of a snow dragon," the elder sister imparts. Playfully and warmly, they banter about the mystical beasts as they slide and skate through the icy terrain. The soft glow on each page completely captivates, drawing readers closer and building anticipation. Will they at last glimpse the snow dragon? "Frostfire" is original and familiar all at once - a true treasure.

Infinite Stars, Gorgeous Book For Kids
Format: Kindle
Frostfire is a cozy whimsical book that showcases the pure imagination and creativity of a child, something that is often lost in our world of technology. Two sisters, Celeste and Miriam, go for a snowy winter walk and Miriam shares all of her knowledge about snow dragons. This topic alone will have your child buzzing with questions and theories of their own. Celeste is such a positive big sister, never minimizing her little sister’s imagination or doubting her facts of snow dragons. I really enjoyed the sisterly bond throughout this book and the patience of siblings shown. The illustrations in this book are stunningly beautiful me bring another whimsical element to the story. From the way the light hits the snow or fades in from the side of the page, to the frost layers on the greenhouse and the silvery snow bushes. Obviously there was a lot of time spent in the illustrations with great attention to detail, which really brings this book to life. I would purchase this book again and again, it would be the perfect Christmas gift for a child.

Beautiful Winter Fantasy
Format: Hardcover
I have enjoyed Elly Mackay's illustrations in other books, so when I saw that she was the author and illustrator of a new book, I had to request it from Net Galley. It's a wonderful treat made of words, art, and imagination. The story opens with two sisters, walking in a winter landscape. The older sister is telling the younger about the snow dragon, hoping to scare her a little, I think. But the younger sister is not willing to be cowed and sets off to explore. What will she find in the snowy landscape? This is a great book for snuggling or for a storytime gathering. I love winter and Elly MacKay has captured the beauty and wonder of it in Frostfire.
