Non-fiction hat reads like a novel (2 more)
Passion in the research
The footnotes hold some of the most interesting bits of information
300 years of history painstakingly explored
I'm not a non-fiction reader but this book was amazing. It's definitely an ambitious one, challenging itself to cover the entire 300 years of Romanov rule in Russia and managing to do justice to every era.

Good range of facts at an appropriate level for most KS1 children. It was very much enjoyed by my class and helped drive our non-fiction writing.

Wonderful story

I am a lover of civil war books both fiction and non-fiction. This book now rates at one of my top favorite books. I couldn't put it down and now I can't wait to read the next one in this series!!
