Just who was Robin Hood? What did William Tell do that was so special? Why is Joan of Arc so famous? Author Lorna Czarnota presents medieval tales that answer these questions—and many more—in a fun, simplified way that allows kids to add their own details and use their own imaginations in their retellings. Besides the tales, Czarnota offers solid historical background to each story, “so that the teller will have a skeleton on which to build the tale to his or her liking without losing the historical significance of the story.” She also imparts child-friendly tips for telling each tale. Of special interest is an informative section on characteristics of medieval tellers and the ways children might adopt a medieval persona. Pull Excalibur from the lake, untie the Gordian Knot, or fight with Roland and the Frankish army. Educators, parents, and children alike will enjoy this collection of medieval tales, designed specifically for young readers and budding storytellers.
