Publication Date: 08/11/2011
The latest from hilarious wordsmith Philip Ardagh, this is a very funny collection of fantastic trivia and amazing facts about royalty and rulers of all kinds throughout history. "PARP!" Pssst! Do you know the story about Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603) and the – er – farting courtier? One day, when bowing low to Her Majesty, the Earl of Oxford couldn't help but break wind. The poor man felt SO embarrassed, that he left the court – and some say the country – for SEVEN years. Upon his return, after such a long absence, the first thing Good Queen Bess said on seeing him was, "Lord, I had forgot the fart!"
