In "The Midwife's Apprentice," set in a frosty fourteenth-century English village, a homeless girl known only as Brat is discovered by the sharp-eyed Jane the Midwife. Jane takes Brat under her wing, offering her a chance to become the midwife's apprentice and find her identity in a world where she previously felt invisible. This Newbery Honor-winning tale blends humor and compassion, immersing young listeners in a historical journey that is both enlightening and entertaining, complemented by an epilogue and an author interview.
