We visited York Castle Museum whilst Christina was delivering read aloud sessions for the children and really brought the story to life with her amazing character accents. Best of luck.

I have recently visited York Castle Museum and purchased this book. We loved following the story and placing the characters that Christina had written about. A brilliant way to grab the children’s attention and learn about history. We wish you all the best with this.
