(2) YA When the young Queen of France asks eleven-year-old Nicola to be her "fool," Nicola believes that her one duty to the Queen--always tell her the truth--will be easier than the rough life she has led as an orphaned street performer. But as the years pass, she must use all of her wits to avoid being caught in the political intrigue that ensnares Queen Mary. The authors have woven fiction and historical fact into a seamless tapestry.
