Description

It's not easy being Anglo-Saxon royalty. As well as fighting off rampaging axe-happy Vikings, you've going to have your noble hands full fighting off rival members of your own family!

No one could have imagined that Alfred, the youngest surviving son of King Ethelwulf would grow into England's wisest and most inspirational ruler.

This gripping diary, written from the perspective of the young Alfred (with the help of his scribe Godric) will take readers through the major events in his action-packed childhood.

Find out how Alfred became the last noble standing in this ripping royal diary.

This language rich text will help extend and expand children's vocabulary and deepen their understanding of life in Anglo-Saxon England.
