Book 3 in the series of Arthurian legends - retold at an easy-to-read level for younger readers!
When two boys save an old man from robbers, they learn of a competition in Londinium to decide the next king of Britain. The elder, Kay, is determined to prove himself worthy as a knight or a king. The younger is Arthur, a farm boy through and through – until he sees the sword in the stone.
About The Legends of 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.
