Biography on a queen

I'm picking our DITHOR books for the coming year and my daughter has requested to read about a princess/queen for her biography book. There isn't any on the list of DITHOR suggestions that fit that bill in her level. Anyone have any ideas on what I could search for to find one? I've been on amazon for a while now trying to find a suitable one. She is in 3rd grade and will be doing the 2/3 workbook but is a great reader and loves to read so she could read a little harder of a book if it's a good one.

Good Queen Bess is a good book, but it is used in one of the other guides, I think RTR.

This one does look good! I read her a page from amazon and she said it sounded interesting. I wonder since we won't be reading it again for almost 3 years, if we could still use it now and then again in RtR.

Also just know it is a very short book. Not sure how well it would work for DITHOR.

O.K. Thanks. I may just check it out from the library and see if we can use it as a 5 day option.
