The Sword in the Stone
FROM SARAH:
This is the first of four PBs about King Arthur, followed by King Arthur and the Round Table, Excalibur, and Lancelot. The four of these make a nice introduction to King Arthur, and the illustrations are quite lovely!
Recommended for ages 6+.
FROM THE PUBLISHER:
The first volume of the Tales of King Arthur series introduces younger readers to the classic story known for over one hundred years as "The Sword in the Stone." Hudson Talbott has faithfully retold this heroic tale with humor and warmth, showing a human side to Arthur rarely glimpsed before. His vivid, richly colored paintings capture a crowded London at Christmastime and magnificent knights jousting on the field of battle, as well as the legendary sorcerer Merlin and the magical sword that reveals Arthur's destiny.
