Go back to the thrilling time of warring knights who were prepared to give their life in order to protect their lord and his castle.

Castles may conjure up a romantic fairy tale world; however, in real life, during the Middle Ages, castles were fortresses, providing shelter and protection for the lord as well as for the peasants who lived on his land. For an army, a lord depended on young soldiers in armor called knights who spent years at the castle learning the skills of warfare.

Author Sarah Fabiny dives into the history of castles and how they grew from simple wood structures to mighty fortresses in stone. She also explains who could become a knight and what their lives were like off of the battlefield, enjoying feasts, courting their lady loves, and showing off in tournaments.

Really great book, especially if you're looking for a great entry point into the world of castles. The visuals make a great compliment, and Franceschi did a great job delivering the information in a clear an engaging manner. Will definitely be on the lookout for more Children's books narrater by her.

Fast, easy and enjoyable read! (Not to mention educational!)

Great book, great performance
