Igraine the Brave

(3) 4-6 Translated by Anthea Bell. When her magician parents accidentally turn themselves into pigs just as a greedy usurper launches a siege, twelve-year-old aspiring knight Igraine must seek aid while her brother defends their castle. The brisk plot is seasoned with the wacky characters, idiosyncratic details, and nonstop shenanigans typical of Funke's other (relatively) shorter works.
