Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! : Voice from a Medieval Village- This is a non-fiction novel that re-tells the historical accounts, personal lives, work ,social custom , beliefs of twenty- two characters whose ages range from 10 to 15 years old. It takes place in a Medieval Village in England during 1255. The book is done in short plays- mostly monologues in verse and some rhyming style. I found this style somewhat boring to read. The appealing part to this book were the illustrations and design.
This book would be of great interest for those interested in learning about medieval history. It would be great to use in a 7th grade or upper level English or History class.
