A revised and expanded edition of the interactive book that presents the facts and asks the reader to ask who really did make England.
Did you know English people were around before the country of England was invented? It&;s true: just over 1,000 years ago, English people lived in several smaller countries all over the island of Britain. A Saxon king called Alfred is famous for starting to bring these countries together&;but who finished the job? Another Saxon king? A monk? Or was it . . . a Viking? Storyteller Chip Colquhoun explores fact and folklore to see what they tell us about the birth of a country. After enjoying these tales of deadly battles, singing kings and miraculous queens, can you work out who made England?
