Description

Marie Antoinette was once probably the most celebrated queens in history…but she was once once a bit of girl, too. As told by her vain but devoted dog, Sebastian, here is the tale of the young princess’s life―from her childhood in Austria, to the flowery preparations resulting in her marriage to Louis XVI; from her unhappy upward thrust to power in turbulent times, to the birth of her own children. Lynn Cullen’s spirited text sheds light on a facet of Marie Antoinette few have seen―that of a vulnerable young girl thrust into a role much bigger than she can have imagined. Stunning illustrations by Amy Young capture the grandeur of life in 18th century Versailles and the touching intimacy of a kid’s lasting love for her pet.
