A time travel adventure. Mattie, a girl from Los Angeles, learns how it feels to walk in the shoes of Mary Queen of Scots. She discovers that being the pampered darling of the French court isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.While being kissed by a real prince has a certain appeal, and turning down the marriage proposal of a king can give a girl confidence, a young queen who does not learn to distinguish flattery from true friendship is bound to come to a tragic end.

    This is a delightful time-travel book in which Mattie, a 14-year old girl from LA, gets transported back in time to experience being Mary Queen of Scots at different stages of her life. This is a real girl power story full of romance, rebellion, betrayal, self-discovery, and most importantly a deep appreciation for friendship and loyalty. And there’s a delicious surprise tidbit toward the end of the story.

    Entertaining. I was right there with Mattie (an ordinary girl from Los Angeles) when she realizes she has somehow become Mary Queen of Scots. Fun to read. The story kept me guessing. There was just nothing predictable about it. Not your average time travel.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An Enthusiastic 5 Star Read!!!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2015
    This book is a delightful trip back in time for a young girl without a clue. Through the mysteries of time travel, Mattie, is thrust into the life and body of Mary Queen of Scots.
    Kanefield goes to great lengths to make the reader understand how those times were. From describing in depth the discomfort of the torture device know as a "corset" to her misunderstanding the daily mannerisms, Kanefield shows the reader how different things were for women back then.
    Women were expected to act and speak in a certain way. Of course, as a disowned daughter of the current king, Mary was more tightly monitored than most. Yet, Mattie refused to just "shut up and listen." As she was "guided" in making decisions that she knew would have a long range impact on history, she asked questions and gave the matter serious thought before responding. She always took care not to alter history as she did. There is a very profound lesson in empowerment here for young girls everywhere. Kanefield also allowed Mattie to grow beyond her years in her time travels so she was faced with mature decisions in this time period as well. The transitions were flawless.
    In this age of the sexualization of young girls, Kanefield has carefully crafted a journey that not only teaches them the history that many forget, but she has also given them direction to think for themselves. This is so much more that a book. It's a peek into how things used to be and it illustrates how far the female gender has come in freeing themselves from society's "corset" of stereotypes.
    I highly recommend that all parents buy their daughters this book for the reasons I've stated above. I recommend that parents buy this book for their sons so that they may understand just a little bit of the feminine battle and realize earlier that all women deserve to be treated as princesses.
    An enthusiastic 5 star read!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Following a Queen's Footsteps
    Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2015
    I downloaded this book from The Story Cartel in exchange for an honest review.

    Could a contemporary teenage girl from Los Angeles make decisions on behalf of Mary Queen of Scots that would save her crown and country? Mattie, a dissatisfied fourteen-year-old on a family vacation in France, time travels to become Mary Queen of Scots for three history-making intervals.This children's novel explains the religious wars that shaped how England and Scotland were governed in the mid-sixteenth century. It will help young readers understand the perks, perils and responsibilities of royalty in those times and how decisions made then still affect Europe and the United Kingdom.
