if you're looking for a picture book that you can use to fairly safely use to explain the Spanish Inquisition to you very young child, this is very likely your best bet.

That is not a sentence I ever expected to write. Also I put the book right back into the little free library I took it out of cause I don't need to safely explain the Spanish Inquisition to ANY kids. I'm not a parent and I have officially dodged that bullet.
