title: Growing Up Royal: Life in the Shadow of the British Throne
author:  Jane Billinghurst 
description: Grade 4-7-This book is an overview, and thus contains more trivia than biography. Through information gleaned mainly from magazine and newspaper accounts, Billinghurst describes everyday life, relationships with servants, responsibilities, etiquette, and more, and conveys the reality that being born a prince or princess is more about being a good public figure than about fun, frolic, and having it all. Though the book revolves mainly around contemporary British royals, with colorful photos primarily of Prince William and Prince Harry at different ages, information on other royals is included. The sidebars on various aspects of royal life, the author's note, and the extensive index are helpful additions.

  From aboard Her Majesty’s good ship the Elizabeth Bonaventure, Plymouth, this
  Sunday the twenty-second of August 1585
  
  
  Right Honourable Sir Francis Walsingham
  
  
  After my heartiest commendations to you, Master Secretary, it is with a heavy
  heart that I pick up my pen to write these words. You have no doubt expected
  fair news of the fleet’s departure by now. It grieves me to tell you that we
  remain for the present at anchor here in Plymouth Sound, delayed at first by
  routine matters of supplies and provisioning, and awaiting still the arrival
  of the Galleon Leicester to complete our number, which we expect any day (and
  with it your son-in-law). Naturally, in a voyage of this size such minor
