Knights and Castles

School Library Journal

Gr 3-6-This title explores the Middle Ages through 100 numbered facts, realistically detailed color illustrations and cartoons, projects, quizzes, a recipe, and age-appropriate vocabulary. Battles, tournaments, banquets, etc., fill the pages, whetting readers' appetite for more in-depth knowledge. The "I Don't Believe It!" factoids capture the imagination with amusing and entertaining tidbits. Good for recreational reading and for enticing reluctant readers.-Pamela K.
