The Joyous Guests<\/strong><\/h3>\n

by Maud Lindsay<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Description:  It is Christmastime in England, and laughter fills the great hall where the Squire’s guests have gathered to commence their holiday festivities. No sooner has the Yule Log been heaved onto the fire, then the Squire’s little son asks for a tale, and in the blink of an eye the reader is transported to a realm of enchantment, where a dog can rule as king, a clever tailor saves a kingdom, and apples given as gifts may lead to strange turns of fortune. Writing in both prose and verse, Lindsay guides readers alternately through the world of stories, and the equally lovely world of a medieval Christmas, with deep love, and a clarity of vision not quickly forgotten.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
