4.0 out of 5 stars Funny and instructive, May 5, 2008
By Enrique Torres "Rico" (San Diegotitlan, Califas) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
In this book, that teaches the young student about Medieval life, author Fiona Macdonald tackles the subject of the dungeon. The idea is that you a returning knight in search of a job but do you really want to be working in medieval jail? She brings out all the negatives about the job to help you understand what it was like in the 15th century. She introduces the applicants for the job, a motly looking crew but not near as bad as the prisoners. The student will learn who runs the prisons, the pay and different types of prisons as well as something about castle life. The student will earn about the diffrent types of offenses that land people in prison. The conditions inside the prison are shown to be less than desireable without beds or toilets. Friends must provide these luxuries, as the prison does not. Needless to say, the health conditions are horrible where many diseases may be thrive. The book concludes with a funny examination of punishment. The art work is hilarious characterizations of medieval life. A glossary is included. This is a super little book for the young student to learn about medieval life and recommended for community and K-6 libraries.
