Knight by Helen Greathead

Big Jobs! is a new narrative non-fiction series covering popular historical topics through a variety of colourful jobs in a down-to-earth, readable style, with plenty of toilet humour! Each chapter features a double page fact spread and there is a glossary at the end. In Knight you are a page, a trainee knight. Experience what it's like to live in a castle and sometimes even clank about in armour. You are trained not just to fight, but to hunt, read poetry and serve at table, too! You'll find it's a big job being a knight.
'Written in an accessible style with humorous illustrations, they are great for engaging reluctant readers as well as educating them about a historical period' Junior Education Plus (December 2008)
