Review
'Once again Barefoot Books have produced a book that is at the same time attractive, full of entertaining stories, and informative about a particular topic, in this case the concept and history of knighthood.' --Montessori International
'The latest in Barefoot's handsomely illustrated themed collections of stories is amiably illuminated with stylized watercolours in pretty hues... This is a book to capture any child's imagination.' --The Sunday Times
'The Barefoot Book of Knights uses a collection of tales to give an insight into the process of becoming a knight while featuring stories about the adventures of knights from around the world. The anthology follows the training of young Tom of Warwick by Master William, who educates the knights-to-be on the importance of not only being brave and strong, but on the necessity of knowing your own weaknesses and learning to co-operate with others.' --Child Education
