What makes a king truly great?
King Alfred the Great: A Story of Resilience for Kids tells the true story of a boy who grew up sick and uncertain, a king who was driven into hiding, and a leader who refused to give up.
Through Viking invasions, loss, and failure, Alfred learned to lead with courage, wisdom, and faith. He rebuilt his kingdom, protected his people, and believed that learning should belong to everyone. Not just kings.
Written especially for children ages 6-9, this beautifully illustrated book brings early medieval history to life while teaching timeless lessons about perseverance, humility, and hope.
Perfect for families, classrooms, and young readers who love stories of real heroes who rise after they fall.
