Good Masters! Sweet Ladies!: Voices from a Medieval Village

My 9 yr. old daughter and I read this together as part of her history lessons. As long as you take the time to explain new vocabulary and read all the footnotes, this is a great way to share what life was like during medieval times for children.

This is a collection of short plays, each featuring a different child during medieval times. They are written in such a way as to let the reader eaves drop on their thoughts as they go about their everyday lives. An interesting approach, and enjoyable for my daughter to listen to. I didn't think she would enjoy them at first, but she ended up liking the book once we had finished!
