Pages 1 to 5
justification:

O chose this scene because she start the history, she have
much informations, tell about the Henry’s power, tell about
his wives, his daughter and his death, and all this
informations help us to understand the history
first wive :
Katherine of Aragon was the first Henry’s wive, she was
spanish, but came to england to marry with Henry’s brother,
but he dead, so she marryed with Henry. They stayed together
for 24 years, and Henry divorced her because he want a son,
and Katherine had a daughter, so Henry’s divorced her to
marry with one younger woman. Katherine never forget Henry,
and she took care of his daughter for three years, living a
lonely and sad life, until die. Before her die she wrote a letter
to Henry, the card said that her daughter, and se was
“returning” the girl, she was the princess Mary

I chose this woman because she was very unjustified, Henry

was very bad to her, her life was lonely and sad, because she
couldn’t stay with her love, and took care about his daughter,
Katherine of aragon all this because she didn’t had a son to be king after Henry,
and I felt sorry for Katherine
 My Opinion :

the book “Henry Vlll and His Six Wifes” is much interessing, all the wives stories is diferent and
tragics, tell the history with catherine’s vision was a big ideia, she read the letters and gave
your opinion, she shared the stories with margaret, and she gave her opinion too, this chose
gave more informations to the history, the diferent points of vision help to understand the
history. the book is great, but isn’t my favorite type, the book is a “history about stories” and
this isn’t mutch good in my opinion. In the general the book is good.
