Excellent book that covers the life and death of Joan of Arc in an easy to read and digest format. I’m happy I purchased this for our homeschooling curriculum.

Very boring, and I read it for school.

Joan of Arc wanted to listen her messengers or angels; but, she also feared what might happen to her and if her parents would approve she could go on this very life changing mission. So she asked the army leader and asked if she could join the army and be a soldier. It took very look until the leader approved. Then Joan of Arc had to face many different and dangerous battles. One almost caused her death, but she was brave enough to continue.

This is a great YA book on the story of Joan of Arc, with well-chosen side-notes. (I still can't get over GILLES DE RAIS having a part in the story of Joan of Arc. That's like Penny Dreadful-style plotting!) It's straightforward, with lots of great art.

I really enjoyed this! I feel much more educated on the woman you often hear about but don't know much about. Her story was quite interesting and it's fascinating to see someone strive for something and succeed. Even if she was martyred, she still freed France.

I really enjoyed reading and learning about this amazing woman that you always hear about but really don't know the history behind her.

Another excellent book on the life and work of Joan of Arc. All that is left to me now is to write my own.
