This is a fun story about two boys who have an improbable but hilarious adventure in the Middle Ages via a time machine. I would have loved this book at age 10, and my sons would have, too. It's refreshing to read a silly story that often makes you smile and laugh out loud. Sadly, it probably wouldn't be published in today's children's book market, but it's the perfect kind of book to encourage a reluctant reader (especially boys) to enjoy fiction!
I love this book, I read an excerpt in a textbook in school and had to check the book out. I've read it several times since then and its an old favorite.
