review 1: Rose decides she is royal when she wakes up, so she becomes the Queen of France. She seeks out Rose’s mother, but no one knows where Rose is. She pricks her finger on a rose plant and goes back to her room to become Rose again. Now no one can locate the Queen of France, so Rose returns to her room. Again, she becomes Queen of France and asks Rose’s mother if it would be possible for her to change places with Rose as she is weary of being queen. “’Just how much will you miss her?’ the queen asked.‘I will miss her infinity times infinity,’ said Rose’s mother.‘That is a very large amount,’ said the queen.”So the Queen of France decides that Rose is too precious to be replaced. Which, of course, she is.Absolutely delightful tale of how much parents and th... moreeir children love each other.
review 2: One day Rose wakes up feeling royal. She layers costume pieces and jewelry until, volia! The Queen of France is up and about. Throughout the day Rose changes between herself and the Queen of France, her delightful parents taking it all in stride. But when the Queen of France tells Rose’s mother that she would like to trade places with Rose, Rose’s mother tells her that she will miss Rose “Infinity times infinity.”The Queen of France is a simple story that probably occurs in many households everyday, yet it retains a feeling of magic. Denton’s ink and watercolor illustrations capture the expressiveness of an energetic child. The simplicity of a pointed toe or uplifted finger reveals Rose’s (or as the case may be, the Queen of France’s) every opinion.The best book with glitter on the cover. less
