Queen Elizabeth II was known for being unflappable in her demeanor, and even as a child she was described as unusually mature for her age. But it turns out even queens have their bad days, as one hilarious and "violent" story about her childhood shows.
The tale—which was initially shared in royal nanny Marion Crawford's book The Little Princesses—has resurfaced in Craig Brown's new book, Q: A Voyage Around The Queen. In a chapter recalling stories from Queen Elizabeth's childhood, Brown writes how the young Princess Elizabeth, as she was then known, rarely misbehaved as compared to her rather spirited little sister, Princess Margaret.
