Good Masters! Sweet Ladies!
Voices From a Medieval Village
by Laura Amy Schlitz
Review this book!
Set in 1255 on an English manor, this spirited exploration of a medieval town and its inhabitants provides much insight into the times through several monologues, a handful of dialogues, and helpful footnotes. Both rich and poor children share their lives--from an eel-catcher nearly drowned by her father at birth to the surprisingly romantic blacksmith's daughter--with enticing language and a wide variety of feeling. Accompanied by rich illustrations, this is the 2008 Newbery Medal recipient.

Media Reviews
"Schlitz takes the breath away with unabashed excellence in every direction...Byrd's watercolor-and-ink pictures add lovely texture and evoke medieval illustration without aping it. Brilliant in every way."
