Shaan's Mother told him that the Queen must be busy in the Buckingham Palace. Shaan suggested his mother that "maybe she can come here instead," as reported by metro.co.uk.

"He had been learning about history at school and that the Queen was the longest reigning monarch – things like how she was when she first started. He came straight home and started reeling off all the information to us," said Shaan's mother.

The letter by Shaan reads: "Dear HRH Queen Elizabeth, I think you are the best Queen in the world. I really like your crown and the red cloak you wear; it's like a superhero."

He then begs her presence at his party before adding:"I need to talk to you about horses, planes and the poor children".

The letter on behalf of the Queen reads: "Although unable to accept your invitation to come to your house for tea because of her very busy schedule, the Queen greatly appreciated your kind thought for her and Her Majesty was pleased to learn that you too like horses."

"The Queen hopes you have a very happy birthday on June 25," it read. "When I picked up Shaan from school I said to him, there's been a letter come for you today, and he just said, 'Oh, from the Queen?'", Baljinder said.
