Great creative historical fiction!

I am a Drama teacher, and I intend to use some of these with my students. The voice acting was great, and it really portrayed the lives of people at that time accurately!

Smartly done and charming.

This Newbery-winning children's book consists of monologues from about 20 different young characters in a medieval village; the sons & daughters of tanners, millers, farmers, lords, ladies.
