About the Author
Josephine Poole and Angela Barrett also collaborated on Knopf's highly successful edition of Snow White.
From the Back Cover
"The story of the Maid of Orléans shows no sign of diminishing its luster after 500 years, and Poole gives it its full dramatic due . . . treating Joan respectfully but simply, generally allowing her most unusual life to speak for itself. Barrett's illustrations echo art ranging from the Unicorn Tapes-tries to Dürer, showing Joan . . . amid glories of natural beauty and richly colored court and military scenes. With its focus on the story for the story's sake, this will make an alluring introduction to Joan for younger listeners as well as those reading the legend on their own."--The Bulletin
"Notable, memorable, and compelling." --The Horn Book Magazine, Starred
"Libraries should try to find room on their shelves for [this] fine volume."--Booklist, Starred
"Because the treatment is of a saint rather than a hero, both text and images have a certain still quality, all the better to pore over. This is a good introduction to Joan." --Kirkus Reviews
