Description

Against the fascinating tapestry of Frances history right through the Hundred Years’ War, Diane Stanley unfolds the tale of the straightforward thirteen-year-old village girl who in Only a few years would lead France to independence from English rule, and thus change into a symbol of France’s national pride. This can be a story of vision and bravado, fierce determination, and tragic martyrdom. Diane Stanley’s ordinary gift to provide historical information in an accessible and child-friendly format hasn’t ever been more impressive, nor her skillful, beautifully realized illustrations (here imitating medieval illuminated manuscripts) more exquisite.
