The Queen and Mr. Brown is a charming picture book about Queen Elizabeth of England and her corgi, Mr. Brown, who decide to spend the day at the Natural History Museum.  After a long walk, they arrive and see all sorts of dinosaur skeletons.  Getting tired, the Queen sits on a bench and falls asleep dreaming of Ascot, a horse racing venue in England, and she is riding a dinosaur.  She is awakened by a guard who tells her it’s closing time and she and Mr. Brown goes home.  The illustrations are colored pencil drawings, and it’s easy to recognize the Queen, but all the dinosaurs look the same.  The text/story does give some brief facts about dinosaurs, but not much. American students who heard the story did not know who the Queen was, and it would not have made any difference.  This is probably a book best used in England.
