Queen of the Mountain
TAK Erzinger
What if you lost someone very important to you and didn’t have anyone around you 
who understood your feelings?
 
One summer, a sad woman arrived in a tiny village.  A little girl in the village recognised her sadness. 
In this gentle and loving story, a carefree farm girl strikes up an unusual friendship with an interesting foreigner.
Soon they both realise they have a lot in common even though they have very different lives.
 
Queen of the Mountain is a heartwarming tale for children inspired by the true events of Queen Victoria seeking 
solace in Switzerland’s landscapes whilst mourning her beloved Prince Albert. The story shows how friendships 
can form beautifully across generations and backgrounds through empathy and understanding. This book nurtures 
these skills for a happy and peaceful life in our young readers, modelling a way to relate and to love.

Vicky and her father live in the Switzerland mountains among the beauty that surrounds them. One day, an older woman and her entourage pass through Vicky’s very small village. They decide to stop and find lodging. Vicky is drawn to this older woman because she notices she appears very sad. If anyone knows sadness, it’s Vicky because she lost her beloved mother, who she was very close to. Vicky gets the opportunity to meet the woman and learns that she is the Countess of Kent. Vicky wants to cheer the countess up, so she decides to make her a floral bouquet.
