Book Review: Slimy Stuarts


Review:  #271
Title:  Slimy Stuarts
Series:  Horrible Histories
Author:  Terry Deary
Read Before:  no
My Comments:  This was a new additional in which it included a Quiz (with answers) and an Index at the end.  Honestly, I can’t say it adds too much to the book.  This was an interesting glimpse into the Stuarts, there’s a lot of good information here, presented in a fun and quirky way.  There are a lot of puns here; some so bad it’ll still give you a chuckle, while others are noteworthy.  The illustrations complements the text well and also a large source of the humour.  One complaint is that in one of the attempts at mimicking a handwritten note, it was hard to decipher the curly writing.  One of the better Horrible Histories book out there.
