Book review 1-4 The Love of a King



Do you know King Edward? This story is his story; his history. He was born in 1894.His father was cold man, and his mother too. She thought a child must be silent and strong. Edward and his family lived in Buckingham Palace. There are 600 rooms, 8 kittens, 19 bathrooms, 24 toilets, 11 dining rooms, 17 bed rooms and 21 sitting rooms. What's a big palace. It took a long time to bring their dinner.

Edward spent many days alone, he never played with other children and he didn't have any friends. I think he was lonely and sad. Even if he lived large palace and took high quality education, he was not happy. Rich is no matter. I think friends are more important.

He went to fight in the First World War. He talked with other people. It was very interesting for him. He didn't understand why countries fight. He saw India, Argentina, Nigeria, Mexico, New Zealand, Germany and Japan. Edward is different the other princes. He gets out of his car and walks down the street. He stops and speaks with the crowd. He laughs and smiles.

In the autumn of 1930, he met Mrs. Wallis. It was very big happen for him.
She was beautiful. She didn't lie to him. She said frankly regardless of he was prince. He laughed and liked that. Wallis married a man when she was twenty. But one day he lost some money, and he was very angry. He begun drink and hit Wallis in the mouth. So, She couldn't bear and decided to divorce. After then, she married another man. But, Edward begun loving her, and she was too. She decided to divorce her husband. Her husband forgive her and said,"I'll never stop loving you. And if you need me, I 'll always be here."

However, Edward couldn't marry easily, because he is a King now! A king is never alone. Everyone knows his face... Wallis had married two times. Everyone didn't agree she gets marry with Edward. She is not suitable for King's wife. As long as he is King He can not marry her. He decided to leave all this for Wallis. He given the crown to his brother and run from England. He is not a King. He is just a man in love.

I think it is incredible story. It is a romantic story, and they love each other always, and all.
