The Wolsey's of Suffolk date to Anglo-Saxon times. The earliest notice of a Wolsey as inhabitant of Ipswich is Thomas Wolsey's father, Robert. He was a successful small businessman and married a Joan Daundy. Thomas was probably born in 1471 in an Inn and was almost certainly baptised in St Mary at the Elms church, Ipswich. Wolsey graduated from university and then his climb to power was extremely fast. He entered the Royal Household as the chaplain to King Henry VII. When King Henry VIII ascended to the throne Wolsey became his Almoner, which gave him access to the King's Council. Henry was very impressed with Wolsey's work. Thomas gained many important clerical positions. In 1515 Wolsey became Lord Chancellor of England. Thomas Wolsey's most famous peace treaty was signed between Henry VIII and Francis I of France at the glorious Field of Cloth of Gold in 1520. Henry had not produced a male heir. A woman called Anne Boleyn came on the scene. Henry began to think that she could mother him a son. The king asked Wolsey to seek a divorce from his first wife. He tried his outmost, as always, but the Pope kept delaying the matter. Wolsey failed and fell out of favour with Henry. He was charged with treason and escorted to the Tower of London. On his way, Thomas became very frail and sadly, on 29th November 1530 he died at Leicester Abbey.

Great Product!
Format: Hardcover
We bought this for a 14 hour car ride! It was a life saver kept our 4 year old and 6 year old nieces occupied. They love the stories and the illustrations in the book were beautiful. The voice of the narrator is so much fun. We would recommend for sure. The price was really great as well.

Easy to use!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
We had a Spider-Man one for my son and he loved it so we got these princess ones for my daughter and she loves them. They’re nice because it tells you when to turn the page and push the next button to read the story so she can “read” to herself now.
