The Not-So-Heroic Knight

(4) 1-3 Thud & Blunder series. Illustrated by Pol Cunyat. Thud, a dark-skinned girl, and Blunder, a fair-skinned boy, are nine-year-old knights who accompany a questing knight who loves to dance (Knight) and encounter a dragon with a cold (Dragon). Despite some typos, these transitional chapter books, filled with wordplay and silliness as well as cartoonish art, should find young fantasy fans. Discussion questions and writing prompts are included. Glos. Review covers the following Thud & Blunder titles: The Not-So-Heroic Knight and The Not-So-Deadly Dragon.
