The year is 1290 and the vehicle for storytelling is the girl's witty, irreverent diary. . . . Superb historical fiction. -- School Library Journal , Starred<br><br> The period has rarely been presented for young people with such authenticity; the exotic details will intrigue readers while they relate more closely to Birdy's yen for independence and her sensibilities toward the downtrodden. Her tenacity and ebullient naivete are extraordinary; at once comic and thought-provoking, this first novel is a delight. -- Kirkus Reviews, with Pointers Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
