Reviews

Joan of Arc comes alive in this history of her life... I thoroughly recommend this book
— Insights

The reader is propelled through a continuous collage of recount, contemporary comment and embedded footnoting, which creates tension and excitement as Jehanne’s story is unfolded.
— Viewpoint

...an effective chronicle of the legendary young woman’s life... a solid, research-based, chronological history of Joan’s life and death... Wilkinson never condescends to her young readers (the book is for children aged nine and over) but her history is accessible and interesting. Surely a dream come true for any history teacher.
— The Age

...a vibrant cache of word pictures, anecdotes and facts... history is compellingly brought to life in this fusion of non-fiction and fiction for middle school students. ****
— Junior Bookseller+Publisher

The text is vividly written so that Joan steps off the page... History will never be boring with this treatment
— Reading Time

...especially interesting because of the way in which it combines fictional narrative with primary source material... includes many useful extras to help the reader... would be a particularly useful resource to have in a school library
