The one Royal Diaries book I never, ever forgot was the one of Anastasia Romanov’s, which had come out in 2000, years before her brother Alexei and sister Maria were found in a separate grave.

But whether he had much in the way of formal education has been a subject of debate among scholars. Whatever his family's financial conditions, Cervantes was an avid reader as a child-a skill he was reportedly taught by a relative. His father, Rodrigo, deaf from birth, worked as a surgeon-a lowly trade at the time-and the family moved around often in Cervantes youth as his father searched for better prospects. The fourth of seven children, Miguel de Cervantes struggled financially for almost his entire life. After less successful earlier efforts, Cervantes finally achieved literary success in his later years, publishing the first part of Don Quixote in 1605. before he was ransomed and returned home. Captured by the Turks in 1575, Cervantes spent five years in prison. He became a soldier in 1570 and was badly wounded in the Battle of Lepanto. Miguel de Cervantes was born near Madrid in 1547. ![]() ![]() And if you prefer your Nutshell Library books on their own and not quite so tiny, each is also available in a board book edition.
