You Wouldn't Want to Live in a Medieval Castle!: A Home You'd Rather Not Inhabit by Jacqueline Morley
"You Wouldn't Want to Live in a Medieval Castle" is a delightfully informative book that middle schoolers can really sink their teeth into. It is told in the form of an introduction to castle living, addressed to the reader playing the role of a young girl living in A.D.1215 England. It covers all aspects of castle living, from the average castle day, to what happens when the Lord comes to stay, to even detailing how the castle inhabitants deal with being under siege. Castle living clearly show more wasn't the bed of roses depicted in "Camelot". It makes even "me" glad I live in a modern house.
An interesting and relateable book for the students, I look forward to adding this book to my classroom library. show less
