<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Even the Queen of England has to get up and groomed to greet the day. Get up, Elizabeth! It's time for the future queen to get out of bed, scrub her face with almond paste, brush her teeth with soot, comb the tangles out of her unruly red hair, get dressed, and sit still while her ruff is sewn on and her sleeves are pinned. It's rough rising and shining every day--for queens and kids alike."--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Even the Queen of England has to get up and groomed to greet the day</b> <p/> Get up, Elizabeth!
