Schlitz, L.A. (2007). Good masters! good ladies! : voices from a medieval village. Cambridge, Massachusetts: Candlewick Press.
Seventeen miniature plays set in medieval times combined together create the book Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! The plays are seventeen characters each telling their own story from their own pointy of view. They are all children from the same village.The style of the language reflects the time period as is the characters' story. Each character's narrative is authentic to their place in society. Included in the book are songs, maps and a few blurbs giving background information. It is a unique way of learning about a time period of the past while enjoying stories from many different personalities and perspectives.
