This fun picture book is filled with detailed illustrations of ancient castles and the valliant knights who fought daring battles. The author teaches the middle grade reader all about those days, when castles were the fortresses of entire villages and various aspects of the cultures of Europe of that era. Any child interested in knights and jousting will love this book!
