Who Was Queen Victoria? tells the story of one of the most well-known queens in history. She became queen of the United Kingdom when she was only 18 years old and stayed queen for more than 60 years. The book starts with her childhood and shows how she went from being a quiet, shy girl to a strong and respected leader. It explains how Queen Victoria helped change her country during a time when many new things were happening like inventions, growing cities, and more trade with the world.
In the very near future, Trent McCauley is a 16-year-old in northern England who makes videos by cutting, pasting, and editing movies starring a dead actor he's obsessed with. This isn't just a hobby of Trent's, it's his passion (much like writing Simon Snow fanfic is a passion for Cath in Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl). But it violates copyright and pirating laws, which is why the state cuts off his family's internet access for a year.
