Customer Reviews

I loved this book

I got this book for my birthday from my parents and I love it. It has a cool sword that comes in and out, a pop-up visor, a castle drawbridge that goes up and down. Parts of it are funny and I learned a little more about what it took to become a knight.

Great book for your kids

This book is full of facts, pictures and interesting things for kids that want to learn more about knights. It is for older kids 8-14 and I think it will be a family favorite for making history fun.

Wonderful

Candlewick Press does an amazing job of enthralling young readers. Their books are beautiful works of art and my sons spend hours enjoying every detail of these amazing books. I don't know how they can put together such a detailed book for such a low price. The Knight Guide is just as enjoyable and lovely as the OLOGY books published by this author.

really good book

I ordered it for my 7 year old son and he loved it. it is very informative and colorfull.

Nice book for the knight wannabees

This book is great for 6 and 7 year olds. I gave it to my son with a small playmobil knight set and they entertained him for a long, long time.
