Welcome to Litsy!

4 ⭐This book may be a little long, but the story is heartfelt. It is about a selfish king who wants presents and gifts from everybody. The one present he can‘t have is a quilt from the lady in the mountains. She only makes quilts for people who can‘t afford them. She tells the king give of yourself and I will make you a quilt. The king will not do this. Instead, he punishes the old lady and in turn just punishes himself.

Although sensibilities have obviously changed since 1974, particularly with regard to James's relationships with his “favourites“, it was still an interesting read and particularly informative about his time in Scotland before inheriting the English throne

Side Note: Good representation that shows LGBTQ+ relationship.

King and King was written by Linda de Haan and Stern Nijland in 2000. This is a wonderful book that teaches diversity in the classroom. It is about a prince being forced to find a princess to marry and after looking at many princesses, he falls in love with another prince. This book has not won any awards, but I still highly recommend for a classroom read aloud!
