5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, December 10, 1999
By A Customer
Catherine is a clever, high spirited, cheerful young girl living in the middle ages. Besides having a beast for a father, pig for a brother, and a annoyance for a nanny, Catherine must deal with the ill-mannered suiters that come to take her as their wife. This is an amazing book for children.

By A Customer
This is a wonderful, funny, thought-provoking story. A plucky girl overcomes her origins as a nameless orphan, and finds her own way in a medieval English village.
