Tale of Sir Gawain

by Philip Keepi and Neil Philip

Book Overview

Old and ill, Sir Gawain . . . tells his young squire old tales of courage and treachery of the Holy Grail, of courtship and magic and betrayal. The pen-and-ink drawings are starkly dramatic and handsome, echoeing the holdness and drama of the story.--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Book, starred review.

great book, especially for young children

This is a great book! I being an adult enjoyed it and I feel that it would be enjoyed just as much by a young child as well. This book gives the reflections of Sir Gawain as he lies dying outside Lancelot's castle towards the end of the time of arthur
