This is a classic book of a boy, Adam, who is a minstrel in England around 1294. Adam learns about life the hard way when he loses his father and dog and must search to find them. The people he meets and adventures he goes through during his journey all help him to grow up.

Opinion: 

This book was entertaing but not one of the best coming of age books I have ever read.  I didn't enjoy the character development and the story was somewhat predictable.
