Ilustration Concering Books The Minstrel in the Tower
In this gripping medieval page-turner, Roger and his sister Alice arekidnapped and held for ransom in an ancient tower. To escape and find their
uncle, the children must summon all their courage and imagination. "Designed as
easy-reading material for middle-graders, this has the virtues of an attractive
format and illustrations, a fast plot, and even a feminist fillip: Alice is the
more intrepid of the siblings, Roger's gifts are for music and
ventriloquism."-- "Bulletin, Center for Children's Books.

We read it for school and it was fine.I liked it. my favorite part was when their uncle cornered the robbers.
What fun for a beginning chapter book!Family values, adventure, conquering fears, villains, knights, and a happy ending of course.

A good way to help children learn about medieval times by way of introduction. Easy to read and engaging for children.
I liked this book. In the book the kids' mom was ill. They set off on a journey to find uncle Lord Raimond, the baron. One of the kids gets locked in a tower. Time is running out. Will they save their mom? Is he a dream? hmm (: Read it and find out!
A simple tale but enjoyable. Set after the Crusades involving knights and barons and scoundrels and 2 small children in search of their uncle!!
Read with my 7 yo. Good story, great to talk about towers, castles, moats.
