Need a brush-up on royal history before The Crown series  6 ends? Ideally via a convenient, single-sheet, poster-sized booklet? The Comical Eye’s British Monarchy booklet hits the US on December 5, 2024!

As fans of Netflix’s The Crown watch the last season ever, just how much do we know about the history of the monarchs?  For example: Which kings couldn’t speak English, or stammered when they could?  Who were “Softsword” and “Sailor Bill”?  Which king had 10 children with his mistress but none with his queen?

Written and devised by London-based illustrator Teresa Robertson and historian Leo Schulz this is an educational comic strip with a difference, a fold-out pocket-sized poster book that’s an alternative (and funnier) Bayeux Tapestry tracing every king and queen from Alfred the Great to Charles III – each of their vivid pen-and-ink-portraits encapsulating the personal quirks and dramatic social change of their reigns. Unfold The Comical Eye’s British Monarchy to learn and have fun as a family, from grandmothers to toddlers – a wonderful alternative to screen-time that brings everyone together!
