British Museum:Kid Life in Medieval Castle Paperback

British Museum: Kid Life in Medieval Castle, part of the popular "So You Think You've Got It Bad?" series by Chae Strathie and illustrated by Marisa Morea, offers a hilariously engaging and fact-packed look into the daily lives of children in a medieval castle. Developed in consultation with British Museum experts, this book uses witty text and humorous illustrations to compare modern childhood experiences with the often-surprising and sometimes gross realities of life for kids during the Middle Ages. From getting stuck in a siege, living next to a smelly, poo-filled moat, and having teeth yanked out with pliers, to even eating live blackbird pie, the book vividly brings to life the challenging, bizarre, and often amusing aspects of castle life, making history accessible and thoroughly entertaining for young readers with a passion for "horrible history."
