Description
Queen Victoria wrote this charming story about the adventures of Alice Laselles at Miss Duncombes school for girls, and the mystery of who put the cat in Miss Duncombes kitchen, when she was just 10¾. This tiny gem lay safe in a little marbled notebook in the Royal Archives ever after. It is publshed here for the very first time, and is illustrated with characters from Victorias own collection of paper dolls, drawn for her by her governess, then delicately coloured in by Victoria herself. A delightful and unique childrens story, which will still enchant and captivate every little princess today. Queen Victoria (1819-1901) grew up at Kensington Palace as an only child. She studied with private tutors and spent her play-hours with her dolls and her spaniel, Dash. Not only a keen writer, Victoria was also an enthusiastic artist, and created this story as an exercise in English Composition.
