The Barefoot Book of Knights by John Matthews
Being a good knight is harder than it seems! Not only do you need a brave heart, a strong arm, and a keen eye, but also, you need to know your weaknesses, cooperate with others, and be undaunted by defeat. In this story-within-a-story we join young Tom of Warwick as he embarks on his noble adventure of becoming a knight. Under the guidance of Master William, Tom learns the ways of knighthood, comforted by the legends of those who've come before him. Stories in this collection hail from Britain, Germany, Russia, Brittany, France, Japan, and Persia. It is written and collected by John Matthews, expert in Celtic and Arthurian legend and history and the author of "Arthur of Albion" (HB: 9781846860485) and the "New York Times" best-seller Pirates books (Carlton). This multicultural collection is framed by a story about an aspiring knight, whose values children can relate to as they delve into these fascinating tales.| SKU | Unavailable |
