PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Shirin YimBridges is the award-winning author of Ruby’s Wish, winner of the Ezra Jack Keats Award. In addition, she founded and is the former publisher of Goosebottom Books, which published the series The Thinking Girl’s Treasury of Dastardly Dames and The Thinking Girl’s Treasury of Real Princesses. This is her first book for Cameron Kids. She lives in Foster City and Fort Bragg, California. Alea Marley was born in the UK and has Barbadian roots. She is based in North England, where she illustrates picture books. Get Up, Elizabeth! is her first book for Cameron Kids.
The Elizabeth of the title is none other than a very young Queen Elizabeth I (still technically a princess in these pages), and any reader who’s been thrust into a stifling party outfit will have built-in empathy as little Bess is roused from her comfy four poster bed and prepped for a big court appearance. * Publishers Weekly *
