Description
You think you know what kings and queens were actually like.
You don't.
Textbooks give you dates and portraits.
They skip the part where a medieval king's royal toilet was a hole over a pit that someone else had to clean. They skip the polar bear. They skip the poisoned peacock.
You've been handed the dullest version of the most interesting people who ever lived.
And the real stories - the weird pets, the fashion disasters, the sibling betrayals have been sitting behind velvet curtains this whole time.
200 Fun Facts About Kings, Queens & Royals by Jonah Mullen tears those curtains down. 16 chapters. 200 true stories pulled from royal nurseries, battlefields, secret passages, and banquet halls where the food taster had the worst job in history.
Inside, you'll discover:
✔ The real reason kings started wearing high heels and why it backfired badly
✔ Which monarch kept a tiger as a palace pet, and what happened at dinner
✔ What a royal food taster actually did when the soup smelled suspicious
✔ The queen who ruled an empire without fighting a single war and won more than the generals did
✔ Why castle life smelled worse than your gym locker, no matter how rich you were
✔ The secret codes, invisible ink, and palace spies that made royal gossip genuinely dangerous
This book is for kids who ask 'but what were they actually like?' and for parents tired of watching history bounce off their child like water off a duck.
It is not for anyone who prefers their monarchs silent, perfect, and bolted to a pedestal.
Every day you wait is another day history stays boring.
