Other child monarchs profiled: Queen Christina of Sweden (1626 to 1689); Puyi, Last Emperor of China (1906 to 1967); The current Dalai Lama of Tibet (1935 to present). Each chapter focuses on a different ruler by offering a dramatic episode from their regal childhood, eye-opening elements of their country's history, and an "End of the Story" section on how their life played out.
