The Minstrel in the Tower by Gloria Skurzynski

My nine year old read this chapter book to himself to support our study of the Medieval period.
Siblings, Alice and Roger, leave their ill mother in search of their Uncle Raimond, whom they never met.  Along the way, two men kidnap them and keep them in an abandoned tower. 
The children's gifts help them overcome the kidnappers and find their uncle Raimond.  They also discover new information about their mother and her family.
Perfect for transitional readers and reluctant readers.
-We own this book.
