Can you recommend a book set in the times of the Norman Conquest?

[LaBelleDameSansPatience]

I need a book to read to year 4, set in the times of the Norman Conquest. (We are trying out the new history curriculum at our school. ) Any suggestions? Henty seems too old for them.

My db had one called Greyback about a village of Saxons who are given a Norman overlord. The story is written from the point of view of the Saxon Lord's son. It was a Sunday school prize though, I think the new Norman was Christian but I don;t remember it being overtly so, you can probably skip those bits.
I think they start off being very antognistic to the Normans, but gradually become friendlier. William the Conqueror makes a brief appearance at the end.

Found it here:

ebay may have it cheaper.

Might be a bit tenuous, but "The Stones of Green Knowe" Lucy M Boston

'Harold Was My King' by Hilda Lewis might be worth a look. link

This website is brilliant, although I can't see Normans immediately!
However, it might be worth a look too.

Great ideas! Now I am going to have a choice.

I do love the website, and have wasted spent the last half hour reading through synopses of books I loved when I was a child. May well have to do some re-reading. (But I didn't find the Norman Conquest.)

Another tenuous one but Robin Hood has the Saxons and Normans as a backdrop and there are lots of interesting versions. Not directly about the conquests though.

Oh yes, lots of versions for different ages and a DVD for the end of term possibility!
