«The Measly Middle Ages» is Terry Deary's humorous history book published by Scholastic Hippo in paperback (128 pages, in English).
With a light-hearted and gruesome tone, it tells what life was like in the Middle Ages: knights, peasants, monks, eccentric kings and queens, the Black Death and harsh schools. Among jester jokes, revolting recipes, macabre games and surprising facts, it offers a raw view of the medieval period, with the series' characteristic humour.
It belongs to the Horrible Histories series; it is its eleventh volume and includes illustrations by Martin Brown. It was first published in 1996.
For young readers aged 9 and up who want to approach history in a fun way.
