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 whove come before him. Stories in this collection hail from Britain, Germany, Russia, Brittany, France, Japan, and Persia.
