A.D. 1135. As church bells tolled for the death of England's King Henry I, his barons faced the unwelcome prospect of being ruled by a woman: Henry's beautiful daughter Maude, Countess of Anjou.

Caught my kids with it
Format: Hardcover
Heard my kids talking upstairs after bedtime one night so I went up to tell them to be quiet and go to bed. Lo and behold my 6 year old is sitting in bed with my 3 year old and reading her a bedtime story out of this book. At that point I couldn’t interrupt so I just let them finish while having a proud parent moment.
