Pretty interesting and informative. The kids enjoyed it. It does tend to skip around a bit, which threw us off sometimes, as we were doing as a read-aloud bedtime story. But this did a good job of giving a feel for Medieval life, or at least this segment of it.

Valuable aid to Keegan completeness (which strives to obtain as complete a picture of a human's life and times as possible, named for John Keegan who deployed completeness to devastating effect in his Face of Battle analyses of three well-documented battles).

we're going to be reading this book in 7th grade and I'm really looking forward to reading the part where they make fun of his dick -_-

This book is part of my seventh grade curriculum. I feel like it is more suited to third or fourth grade. It's a good novel to teach point of view from.
