Fabulous, engaging book. I used it while homeschooling my 5th grader, and teaching the medeival period. I highly recommend this!
I had gotten this book expecting it to be more informative than it was, but the plastic wrapping it came in prevented me from seeing just how juvenile. It will give the reader some basics on how a castle is built, but the descriptions are quite G-rated and for those who know better, castle-building is strenuous work for those involve. I'm just glad to have gotten it read and off my shelf.
thia is a great book, a CAldecott honor award winner, that covers the planning and building of a medivial castle and township
Great book! Just like his other books!
