    Synopsis
    A Newbery Medal Winner Awarded the John Newbery Medal as "the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children" in the year of its publication. "A road's a kind of holy thing," said Roger the Minstrel to his son, Adam. "That's why it's a good work to keep a road in repair, like giving alms to the poor or tending the sick. It's open to the sun and wind and rain. It brings all kinds of people and all parts of England together. And it's home to a minstrel, even though he may happen to be sleeping in a castle." And Adam, though only eleven, was to remember his father's words when his beloved dog, Nick, was stolen and Roger had disappeared and he found himself traveling alone along these same great roads, searching the fairs and market towns for his father and his dog. Here is a story of thirteenth-century England, so absorbing and lively that for all its authenticity it scarcely seems "historical." Although crammed with odd facts and lore about that time when "longen folke to goon on pilgrimages," its scraps of song and hymn and jongleur's tale of the period seem as newminted and fresh as the day they were devised, and Adam is a real boy inside his gay striped surcoat. "Engaging and beautifully written."-- Children's Literature

      The item is in great shape. As described. It took about 21 days to arrive here in Kansas. Not sure where it shipped from. But free shipping can mean longer wait time -sometimes. It arrive safe in these plastic white shipping bags. *Did purchase another item already because price and suggestion was timely for it. Thanks so much. Good job. Recommended seller! if you don't mind wait time. But get good deal! Thx again!

      This is an excellent audiobook written by Michael Connelly. Although it was listed as being in very good condition, it arrived with the box smashed flat in a padded envelope. It had a lot of other damage, multiple stickers, etc. The seller quickly adjusted the price after I contacted them, however, which I appreciate.

      Super smooth transaction all the way around from a super seller. Communication in form of tracking. Shipped lightning fast. Arrived in plastic envelope. Inspection shows SC book in excellent condition and appearance, well worth the quality and value of the product. Highly recommend this seller as one of the best on eBay and a must use. I will purchase from again should the opportunity arises.
