A marvelous, classic children's book -- winner of a Newbery Medal in its day -- in which a minstrel's son loses his way on the highways and byways of 13th-century England. Jammed (but so subtly!) with period detail, this engrossing novel is an enduring introduction to merrie olde England for readers ages 8 to 12.  (GBR336, $7.99)
