Who was Henry VIII?  Cover Image Book Book

Who was Henry VIII? / by Ellen Labrecque ; illustrated by Jake Murray.

Labrecque, Ellen, (author.). Murray, Jake, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Mainly remembered for his six marriages and his self-appointment as the "Supreme Head of the Church of England," Henry VIII was also attractive, educated, and athletic. When Henry Tudor ascended to the English throne at the age of 17, his reign looked promising. But by the time of his death in 1547, King Henry VIII was characterized as an extremely egotistical, harsh, and insecure king.
