In this course, Isabelle King will guide you in creating a Tudor-inspired story to perform for Queen Elizabeth I and her dog! You’ll develop a character, setting, poem, title, and an exciting story beginning. By the end, you’ll have uncovered the name of the Queen’s dog and received a poster to design your story’s front cover—plus, you can keep writing your tale in your own time!

Let's get started!
