The Legends of King Arthur: No Ordinary Boy
Description
Book 1 in the series of Arthurian legends - retold at an easy-to-read level for younger readers!
All Merlin knows is the village where he mixes potions for wary customers, and dreams strange dreams that sometimes come true. Then a mysterious hooded man appears, seeking a boy with no mortal father, and Merlin is taken far away, to a crumbling tower and a ruthless king. To a place where his is not the only magic.
About The Legends of the King Arthur series:
Epic battles, thrilling quests and forbidden love combine in the medieval story of the boy who would be king. A retelling of the Arthurian legends, adapted and illustrated to introduce children aged 7+ to classic folklore. Great to share aloud, just like the original tales. All titles have been leveled for classroom use, including GRLs.These familiar stories, written to a younger audience, take care to not be too scary and still tell tales of exciting adventures! Plenty of dragons and knights, castles and kings! Explore Tristan & Isolde (the inspiration for Romeo & Juliet), Lancelot, the Holy Grail, Gawain, Merlin, and Camelot. Black and white illustrations have a cartoon-look. I liked the extra space between lines in these chapter books. This series has a Lexile score of 700L and GRL of T.
