The History of the Great Britain book for kids
I will have my English history exam on the February. I'm interested in the period from the beginning to the Queen Victoria. (all other will be in next course).
I like history so much. I really interested in it, but, unfortunately, I haven't resource for that. The main recommended book was written by Russian scientist. It is not so bad. I can understand those language.
But this book had some "white spots". For example: "At the death of Edward there were 3 claimants to the throne: Edgar, nephew of Edmund Ironside, William and Harold, the son of Godwin" But who is Godwin???? And why did his son pretend on the throne?????
And this book full of such things.
So I want to understand all this history questions.
May be you know some non documental history book, which better for kids. (I suppose that are my abilities)
Thank you for help!

I am interested in British history but am no expert and so I couldn't answer your questions. Children's history books are not likely to go into the kind of detail you are asking about. So you may have to sacrifice detail for understanding.
In Britain, there is a very popular and funny children's series called "Horrible Histories" which is also really popular with adults. I checked it out recently and actually, the English is still quite advanced. As the word "horrible" suggests, it's a little scary!
