The Locked Crowns


The Locked Crowns, by Marion Garthwaite

One of the first novels I remember reading, in either third or fourth grade, about a prince of Denmark and a princess of England.  I was reunited with the book (joy of joys!) when proofreading my brother's essay on Alfred the Great and his troubles with the Danes... which caused me to recall this book... which, forgetting the name of the novel, caused me to search online for an hour - "The Interlocking Crowns"... "The Linked Crowns"... "The Two Crowns"... and then I found it on a website for good historical fiction for children - broken down into time periods!  Of course, I ordered it, immediately, and was pleased to begin reading it - again! - a mere three days later!  So much love!
