Today we read a longer book about the knights of the Middle Ages. The book is called "Knights in Shining Armor" written by Gail Gibbons and published by Little, Brown and Company in 1995.
One of the things I love about Gail Gibbons writing style is she doesn't make the reading easier by using simple words.
Children who are exposed to history at an early age become fascinated with the amazing tales of the past. This book is a little lengthy, yet absolutely worthy of reading over and over again. Gail Gibbons has done a superior job researching and writing about the knights from 500 to 1500 A.D. Kids, as well as adults, will be fascinated to learning about how a knight became a knight, what he wore in battle, a knights chivalrous ways, dragons and legends and so much more. This is a book to have in your home library especially if your child is into knights!
