5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for teaching church history to kids - or learning it yourself!, January 24, 2007
By SoManyBooks (southwest US) - See all my reviews
This book, and its companion, Peril and Peace, is a well-written collection of narratives about important Christians. The stories are descriptive and interesting, and give you a real sense of "being there". I never studied church history as a child, and I enjoy reading these stories aloud to my 10yo son as we study history. I highly recommend this book to other homeschoolers, parents who want to help their kids learn about church history, and even adults who want an enjoyable introduction to the lives of important Christians of the past. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series!

5.0 out of 5 stars History for Kids of All Ages, August 31, 2007
As a homeschooling mother, I am always looking for ways to bring curriculum to life. As I was preparing our study on the Middle Ages, this book literally dropped from the shelf into my grasp. Whether it was a divine appointment or not, I have found Monks and Mystics to be a great addition to my son's studies. He loves the conversational style and remembers the factual information much better than through purely textual accounts. I plan on purchasing all the books in this series as our studies progress!
