Setting: An English manor, 1255. Dramatis personae: a gentle shepherdess who sings all night to a dying sheep, a crippled pilgrim who seeks a cure at Saint Winifred's Well, a lord's nephew who dreads hunting boar with his uncle, a tanner's apprentice who defends the stink of leathermaking, and more. Here are nineteen monologues and two dialogues full of the intriguing (and sometimes gruesome) details of medieval life. Full-color ink and watercolor illustrations. Foreword. Bibliography. Winner of the 2008 Newbery Medal.
