We love this series so we were excited to read the latest one. This beautifully illustrated book helps readers to journey back in time to find out what it was really like to live in Tudor England. … This is such an interesting book and makes a great topic resource book for school. Recommended for readers 7+.

…the latest in a super youth history series. Live Like A Tudor #ClaireSaunders @miaunderwood.illustration @gmcpublications gives you a social history perspective on this most covered of eras. Much more my vibe than the often focussed on beheadings (maybe one day we’ll see Henry VIII as the domestic abuser he was, rather than a laudable type). Along with titles on the Egyptians, Romans, Vikings and Hunter Gatherers, these are great for home shelves to supplement learning as well as in school to inspire creative approaches for getting closer to the past.

An engaging book that helps bring the era to life; it’s worth adding to to KS2 class collections, and to home bookshelves if you have a child interested in the past.

This book reveals what life was like in the tumultuous Tudor age. England's kings and queens held absolute power over their subjects, and stepping out of line meant a whipping or worse. This book series provides informative, fascinating facts, insights, and activities, using a mixture of immersing text and stunning illustrations to engage readers age 7+.

We’re already big fans of this fantastic non-fiction series, and Live Like a Tudor is a brilliant new addition we couldn’t wait to get our hands on! Aimed perfectly at Key Stage 2, these books are ideal for use in the classroom and packed full of fascinating facts, fun activities, and engaging illustrations. As someone who absolutely loves learning about the Tudors, I was thrilled to see this edition released— From Tudor fashion and food to games, jobs, and crime & punishment (my class always love the gruesome bits!), this book brings history to life in such a vivid and accessible way. We’ve used other books in this series in school and they’ve always been a hit—Live Like a Tudor is sure to be just as popular. I can’t wait to share it with my class!
