The
Errant Knight
By Ann Tompert
Illustrated by Doug Keith
A knight
on his way to serve his King is delayed...over and over again...by
people who need his help. He spends years struggling along, helping
others and postponing his journey to see the King. He is nearly
desperate to reach the royal castle and fulfill his duty. Will he
be considered an Errant Knight by his King? This
fast moving fantasy will be sure to appeal to children of all ages.
Ann Tompert, the award winning author
of over 30 books, wrote The Errant Knight as a tribute to her father.
He raised three daughters by himself, postponing his own dreams.
Doug Keith's illustrations perfectly
catch the ideas and ideals of this wonderful fantasy. He has given
us a visual feast to cherish along with the beautiful story.
You can count on Illumination Arts
for the very best in children's picture books with an unforgettable
moral lesson.
Read it out loud to the whole family,
and share thoughts about the story and the illustrations for a meaningful
bedtime event.
