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 you also 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 to become a knight. Tom is comforted by the legends of those who came before him as he learns the ways of knighthood under the guidance of Master William. Stories in this collection hail from Britain, Germany, Russia, Brittany, France, Japan and Persia. This edition comes with an audio CD read by Anthony Head.
