The Bravest Knight Hardcover - 2007
by Mercer Mayer
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 dragonsfrom the mountains, and a giant troll that roars and eats anything.
What kid hasn't dreamed of living in fairy-tale times hasn't imaginedhimself as the bravest knight in all the land (or at least the knight's faithfulsquire). As he has done in his celebrated There's a Nightmare in My Closetand its follow-ups, Mercer Mayer brings childhood fantasy hilariouslyto life here. Bad knights are forced to pick flowers for the king, a day'sadventure involves rescuing a cat from a tree, and our hero boldly fights afire-breathing dragon using his trusty slingshot.
This silly charmer, originally published in 1968 asTerrible Troll, has been entirely redone in vivid color. It's arediscovered gem with timeless appeal.
