The book arrived in great condition, and the plot is gripping, filled with twists and historical intrigue. That said, I found some of the references and terminology challenging; I had to look up a few things along the way. Still, it added to the immersive experience, and I appreciated learning something new
What a story for the modern child! It is a wonderful study of families and family dynamics reflecting how society is changing and opening up to possibility.
The illustrations are beautiful and appealing to children.
