Does it matter if they learn about an exploding William the Conqueror's corpse, or Charles II the Party Prince or Edward II getting unregal things shoved in unregal places? ala Horrible Histories
Isn't the point that they get told the story. It doesn't really matter how long the story is, how fast paced or undetailed it is or what's in it particularly. The point is that they hear it and enjoy hearing it. (It's all a bunch of lies and half truths anyway.)
History is a set of lies agreed upon. Napoleon Bonaparte
History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce. Karl Marx

History will be kind to me for I intend to write it. Winston Churchill
