Sir Gadabout and the Little Horror by Martyn Beardsley
Owing to a shortage of suitable knights, Sir Gadabout is entrusted with escorting one of King Arthur's children to Camelot. The beastly brat gives him the slip and poor Sir Gadabout ends up in terrible trouble - not surprising, since he's the worst knight in the world.
"Martyn Beardsley's useless knight returns..with an armoury of sophisticated, anachronistic jokes, to escort a beastly child to Camelot ... [which] will also tickle adults who read aloud." Sunday Times, 14 Jul 02
Martyn Beardsley was born, and has spent his life, in Nottingham. A civil servant for many years, he gave it up to concentrate on a writing career. Apart from being a children's author, one of his great passions is history and in 2002 he published a biography of Sir John Franklin, the Arctic explorer. A committed Buddhist, he is interested in reading, sport, keep-fit and yoga. Martyn Beardsley is married with one daughter and a mad dog. Tony Ross is one of the most popular and successful of all children's illustrators, with many picture books to his name. He has also produced line drawings for many fiction titles.
