A little bit to add: Eward was first to get the crown after his father died. When Edward died as a teenager, his eldest sister Mary took over for 5 years. When she died, Elizabeth I got the crown and reigned for 45 years.

Priscilla is correct about the order in which Henry VIII's children reigned. However, it should be noted that the crown did not pass directly from Edward to Mary. Lady Jane Grey reigned as Queen for 9 days in July 1553 between Edward and Mary's reigns. The site I noted above is quite useful for further elaboration.

I might add that Henry had at least one illegitimate child, Henry Fitzroy (1519-1536), Duke of Richmond and Somerset, by his mistress, Elizabeth Blount.
