Sparrow

Author: Michael Morpurgo
Pages:253
Age group: 11+
Genre: Joan of Arc, history, Birds, Battles
Published: 2012
There was only one creature on this earth who really knew Joan. He was a sparrow, just an ordinary sparrow...
He was her best friend on this earth, maybe her only friend, too.
A young girl faces an impossible task - to save her beloved France from tyrants. To free her country, Joan will lose everyone she has ever loved. But she listens to her heart and believes in her calling.
Many years later, a girl called Eloise has a very special dream about her heroine, Joan of Arc.
My Review
wow! Great book! This was a really interesting book which is set in the time of Joan Of Arc. It was even more suitable because at school I am learning about the Medieval Times. The story is told through both a sparrow and Joan's point of view. It is all about Joan's life and how she rids the English out of France. 

Hope you enjoy this great book by Michael Morpugo! He also published a book called outlaw about robin hood, when sparrow was released!
See you soon,
Courtney
