Come to the Castle!: A Visit to a Castle in Thirteenth-Century England

BEHIND THE SCENES IN A MEDIEVAL CASTLE History comes alive in poetry and pictures. Welcome to the 13th-century banquet at the castle of the Earl of Daftwood! Here young readers will meet all of the lords and ladies, the servants and the squires. They will discover flying silverware and mystery meat made of animal feet for dinner--life in the castle isn't always elegant. Linda Ashman's clever rhyming text and S.D Schindler's intricate illustrations look at life in a medieval castle from multiple eye-opening perspectives.
