The Bravest Knight

The Bravest Knight

• Used Book in Good Condition

<i>I wish I lived a thousand years ago. There would be beautiful castles, kings and queens, good knights, bad knights, fair ladies in danger, evil dragons from the mountains, and a giant troll that roars and eats anything.</i><p> What kid hasn€t dreamed of living in fairy-tale times€"hasn€t imagined himself as the bravest knight in all the land (or at least the knight€s faithful squire). As he has done in his celebrated There€s a Nightmare in My Closet and its follow-ups, Mercer Mayer brings childhood fantasy hilariously to life here. Bad knights are forced to pick flowers for the king, a day€s adventure involves rescuing a cat from a tree, and our hero boldly fights a fire-breathing dragon using his trusty slingshot.<p> This silly charmer, originally published in 1968 as <i>Terrible Troll,</i> has been entirely redone in vivid color. It€s a rediscovered gem with timeless appeal.<br><br></p></p>
