Welcome to Her Royal Highness. When we hear the word princess, we most likely think of Disney princesses. But at this blog, you can learn about the real princesses, princes, queens, kings, and other members of the royal families of the world. If you have ever just searched on Google the words "Royal Family" (And if you have not, you should do so!), you will find all sorts of top news stories and royal events that happened that very day or week. Royal news is all around us and we should learn and hear about what they do because it is important and interesting. Royals don't just sit on thrones all day with crowns on their heads, they go out and host parties, meet with leaders, and visit people in the countries they rule. So as you read this blog, open your mind and read about the current royal news. Enjoy!
Queen Elizabeth II is not only in love with corgis! If you thought that Queen Elizabeth strictly only owns corgis, you are wrong. But, corgis are the dog of the royal monarchy. In fact, three of her corgis had a part of the opening ceremony at the London Olympics back in 2012. Three other cool facts to know about the Queen's corgis are: Her love of corgis began as a child when her dad, George VI bought the family a corgi named Dookie. Most of her corgis common ancestor is Susan, who was the Queen's eighteenth birthday present. Susan the corgi came with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip on their honeymoon. But the Queen does not limit herself to one breed of dogs! She has also owned labradors, a golden retriever, a cocker spaniel , and a shih tzu. The Queen has also been known to breed dorgis, which are a dachshund corgi mix which sound so cute! I got my information from the book Queen Elizabeth II and the Royal Family
I can't wait to read more of this blog! It is very well researched.
