likely all you boys and girls of the age of the
children in this story will learn, by and by, how
important a part in history was played by the people of
Normandy, especially under their Duke, William the
Conqueror. And then, if you read this little book,
perhaps you will say to yourselves, "Why, yes, we
remember about those people, how they lived and what
the children did in the days of Duke William!" And if
you read carefully your histories, and books of manners
and customs, and tales of that time, perhaps you will
say also, "The doings of Our Little Norman Cousin of
Long Ago must have been true! At any rate we are quite
sure the author tried very hard to make those Norman
children in the story behave as proper eleventh-century
boys and girls ought to.
