children's books,historical fiction,literature and fiction,medieval,3 - 5 years,6 - 8 years, When a little jester appears, cold and hungry, at the doors of a French monastery a thousand years ago, he is almost turned away by the abbot. But another monk implores him to let the boy in, and soon the jester is sitting at the monks' dining table, eating to his heart's content. And what better way to thank his hosts than to give them a little show? Soon, the jester is making music and dancing and juggling on the high altar of the church, right below the beautiful painting of the weeping Madonna. When the abbot discovers this sacrilege, he is outraged. But he and all the monks are about to discover the kind of miracle a little laughter and generosity of spirit can create. In this unusual and satisfying story, Swedish author and illustrator Helena Olofsson captures the medieval flavor of the time with a timeless message. Readers will be fascinated by the setting and charmed by the antics of the little jester. (Ages 5 to 7) --Emilie Coulter.
