Je me suis remise à cette série que j'avais commencé à l'école primaire (donc il y a très longtemps) après être tombée par hasard sur un exemplaire de ce tome-ci. Du coup, cette lecture était pour moi empreinte de nostalgie. Le roman est écrit sous forme de journal intime, tenu par une jeune demoiselle d'honneur à la cour d'Elizabeth Ière d'Angleterre. Vraiment cool!

I picked this series up on a whim and I'm definitely glad I did. Grace Cavendish is a wonderful, strong little girl who would be an excellent role model for any young lady. Set in Elizabethan times and rife with political intrigue that a kid can understand, this book livens up history in a way that will appeal to all ages.

The detail on the operation of the mint, particularly the detailed description of the visit was fascinating, but the plot felt a little too melodramatic for the tone of the series.

I remember getting this book in 7th grade and loving every minute of it. I re-read it again in 8th but by 9th I decided I was just to grown up to read it. Big mistake. I wish I still had a copy of this book or could find this author more easily at the store. I really loved this book.
