The book written by Ms. Haeger provides a vivid account of Jane's early years. The story begins with Jane as a 9-year-old girl living at her family's estate, Wolf Hall. As the reader progresses, they learn about Jane's love for a local boy named William Dormer. Unfortunately, their love was not meant to be due to several obstacles, including a scheming servant, Will's ambitious mother, and eventually the King's love. I highly recommend this book, especially for those interested in Tudor history. It sheds light on a lesser-known queen and provides an interesting glimpse into her life. While not everything written may be agreed upon, the story is enjoyable and transports one back in time to the court of Henry VIII. It's fascinating to read about how one plain girl became Queen Jane of England.
