Hello! Let me start off by saying that I LOVE your books! I've been learning about the history of architecture, and I was just wondering what style architecture you use in your books (mainly in your Hagenheim series). Would the buildings be Romanesque style, Gothic style, or something else? Also, in what time period do your Hagenheim books take place? Thank you for writing! Your books are so encouraging! Thanks! :)
Melanie Dickerson
Hi, Ruth! The Hagenheim books take place in the 1300's and early 1400's. The architecture is typical of Medieval German buildings. I guess the castles and churches would be mostly Romanesque and Gothic, and the houses would be wattle-and-daub and half-timber and plaster, as well as half-timber and brick.
Thank you, Ruth!
Thank you, Ruth!

Hello there! I was looking for books for my sister to read, but I want the books to be appropriate. I personally haven't read any of your books, though I plan to in the future. Would you recommend your books for a young teenage girl? How "clean" would you say your books are?
