Tangled In Time 2: The Burning Queen by Kathryn Lasky
For fans of the Royal Diaries series and of Gail Carson Levine, here is the second adventure in a middle grade time travel series from Newbery Honor-winning Kathryn Lasky!
In book 2, newly orphaned Rose finds herself time-traveling between present day and the court of the two most memorable English princesses in history.
When Princess Mary ascends the throne in sixteenth-century England, Rose is forced to leave Princess Elizabeth and serve Mary. Mary's coronation is coming, and Rose will be put to work making elaborate gowns. But the religiously devout queen's next plan is to begin her attack on Protestants--burning them at the stake!
Rose's dad, master spy and goldsmith for the court, urges Rose to escape to her home century, present day Indiana, where Rose befriends a young immigrant named Marisol. Rose must protect Marisol from both middle school mean girls and the threat of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Relishing her newfound family, Rose is determined to rescue her father and best friend Franny from the dangers of Queen Mary's reign. Is she willing to risk everything to save the people closest to her?
- Time Travel Adventure: From the halls of a modern Indiana middle school to the treacherous royal court of sixteenth-century England, Rose must navigate two very different worlds.
- Tudor Court Drama: Forced to serve the terrifying Queen Mary, Rose must survive the beginning of a historic reign of terror while worrying about the fate of her friend, Princess Elizabeth.
- Friendship and Courage: In the present day, Rose stands up for her new friend Marisol, protecting her from school bullies and the very real threat of immigration agents.
- A High-Stakes Rescue Mission: With time running out, Rose is determined to save her father, a master spy trapped in the past, and her best friend Franny from the Queen's wrath.
Matthew Trueman spent his childhood in Italy but returned to the United States to attend art school. He is the illustrator of A PICTURE FOR MARC and NOAH'S MITTENS. He lives in Phillipsburg, New Jersey.
Of ONE BEETLE TOO MANY, he says: The illustrations in this book started out as drawings created with acrylic inks, watercolor, and graphite pencil. I moved up the food chain to add gouache and colored pencil. After sealing the pictures with acrylic medium, I did my thicker acrylic painting, then fooled around a little more with graphite and colored pencil. Finally, I added the collage elements, including paper, string, and weeds and wildflowers from my yard and nearby ditches and fields.
