Book Description
for Girl in a Cage by Jane Yolen and Robert J. Harris
From the Publisher
When her father, Robert the Bruce, becomes King of Scotland, Marjorie Bruce becomes a princess. But Edward Longshanks, the ruthless King of England, has set his sights on Robert and his family. Marjorie is captured and imprisoned in a wooden cage in the center of a town square, exposed to wind, rain, the taunts of the towns-people, and the scorn of Longshanks himself. Marjorie knows that despite her suffering and pain, she is the daughter of noble Robert the Bruce--and she will make her father, and her country, proud. For a true princess is a princess, whether in a castle or in a cage.
