Context:

Dominic has this Ladybird book physically with him during the recording. It's discussed at length because it opens with two stories that are completely untrue—Cromwell being stolen by a monkey as a baby, and having a childhood fight with Charles I. Dominic uses it to illustrate how mythologized stories can hook children into history even if they need debunking later.
