The fact or fiction behind the Tudors

the long version

Truth or Busted's 'Tudors' title explores popular myths about the Tudor period, its people and events in a tongue-in-cheek, humorous way that kids will find unputdownable! Alongside features such as 'Zounds!' (a Tudor cry of astonishment) in which we discover the goriest aspects of Tudor life, Truth or Busted statements such as 'Tudors thought that bleeding made you better' or 'It is illegal to eat swans' are explored. We look at where the idea came from, whether it has any basis in truth, or whether it can be consigned to folklore. Finally, each statement is given a TRUTH or BUSTED evaluation! A must for anyone studying the Tudors at key stage 2 or key stage 3!
