First edition. 2017 Newbery Honor Book! 1242. On a dark night, travelers from across France cross paths at an inn and begin to tell stories of three remarkable children. Their adventures across France see them taken captive by knights, sit alongside a king, and save the land from a gaseous dragon. On the run to escape prejudice and persecution and save precious and holy texts from being burned, their quest drives them forward to a final showdown at Mont Saint-Michel. But can these children actually perform miracles? Told in multiple voices, in a style inspired by The Canterbury Tales,the diverse narratives come together to form an incredible whole.
