The Medieval Plague
The spreads in this book, which are made to look like aged parchment, describe how the plague was transmitted, its effects on the body and on the terrified medieval populace, and real and imagined cures. Readers will learn that it is possible to get the disease from prairie dogs in the western United States, but that it is easily treated by modern medicine. They will be swept up by the book’s closing challenge: to imagine living in a town that’s trying to keep out the plague, and create a poster that explains the ban on travel. Print and online further-reading suggestions will aid those completing reports on this grisly period in history.
