Joan of Arc

Written and Illustrated by Diane Stanley

Set during the exciting and dangerous time of the Hundred Years’ War, this story introduces a brave thirteen‑year‑old girl from a small French village. In just a few years, she would help lead her country to freedom from English rule and become a powerful symbol of France’s pride.

It’s a tale filled with courage, big dreams, and unshakable determination—along with the sadness of her heroic sacrifice. That is the story of Joan of Arc.
