Our little Saxon cousin of long ago

Step into the wooded hills and bustling villages of early England alongside Wulf, a young Saxon boy growing up in the days before the Norman Conquest. In Our Little Saxon Cousin of Long Ago, readers follow Wulf as he learns to farm, hunt in the forests, join in boar feasts, sail the rivers, and train for the duties of a Saxon warrior.Through Wulf's experiences-preparing for great festivals, hearing ancient tales from the scop, visiting bustling trading towns, and witnessing the looming threat of invasion-the everyday life of the early English springs vividly to life.Rich with historical detail and gentle storytelling, this enchanting tale offers a child's-eye view of the hardy, close-knit people who shaped the foundations of medieval England.
