Children's Literature
The tales of King Aurthur and his Knights of the Round Table are so powerful and enduring that they have become interwoven into our very culture. The straightforward and accessible retelling of these accounts allows these profound characters to come to life for younger readers, providing children the chance to meet such famous characters as the Green Knight, Merlin, Sir Launcelot, and Queen Guinevere. While the motivation for young readers will most likely stem from a desire to turn page after page of this exciting adventure story, these readers will have the added fortune of understanding the many King Arthur allusions in contemporary and classic literature. A must read for adventure and literature lovers alike, these tales run the gamut of human emotion, touching upon virtues of justice, dignity, grace, courtesy, and above all, courage. There is also something to be gained by the adult readers here, who will be able to reconnect to the stories and characters in a way that makes them feel new and fresh. At the conclusion of the book, a helpful guide to keeping track of the many characters, suggested activities, and discussion questions, and even some fun facts about the author and time period are provided. A great addition for the Social Studies or English classroom, this timeless work will entertain students whether they are reading it in its entirety or tale by tale. Reviewer: Ginny Sautner

    Wholly Cow

    I read this book and I was amazed at how the author(s) write. The book takes you through many adventures that lead to many different things. This book marvels your mind and gets you to think beyond of what you ever thought you could think of.

    reading level is fairly difficult

    After my ESL students (8th grade) read "Freak the Mighty" and saw the movie "The Mighty," I wanted to follow up with a unit on the Arthurian tales. This was a little too difficult for them to read independently, though I think they enjoyed it. We used it to learn about quests and what the defining features of a quest are, and with that background they could read a little on their own.

    The best version of the magnificent tale.

    There are many versions of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. Sir Thomas Malory, Howard Pyle, & many others (even John Steinbeck) have written and re-written the beautiful tale in many volumes. Roger Lancelyn Green, the "author" of this version even said himself, "What use is it to write this tale again?" The answer is quite simple. Instead of stretching this tale to four or more volumes, Mr. Green took all the versions of this story, compared them, and put them into one beautiful volume. This version of the book has all the past versions put into it; one version might have a tale, while the other might be lacking it. Roger Lancelyn Green put all of the tales in a very organized way. Also, the language is simple but still has the spirit of bravery, valiance, nobility; the soul of the middle ages when the earth was inhabited by willing knights to do brave quests. Damsels in need of helpl; those were the earth's golden days. This version of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table by Roger Lancelyn Green has all this in one organized beautiful and magnificently bound edition. I strongly encourage you to get this version of the enchanticly strewn tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.

    Good for beginners

    Dozens of tales comprise the legend of King A. This author compiles about 23 and fashions them into a cohesive story, showing the rise of King A., the age of the glory of his realm, the quest for the Holy Grail, and the realm's fall. Most of the tales are episodic they can stand on their own, as well as a functioning part of the legend. Everyone's favorite knights are here: Launcelot, Galahad, Gareth, Tristam, Percivale, evil Sir Mordred, and dumb Sir Kay. Also, the ladies: Queen Guin, Morgana le Fay, Enid, and Blanchefleur. My favorite Knight is Sir Gawain, and favorite tale is that of him and his Lady Ragnell. Well laid out, an easy read, and a good introduction to the courtly age.

    King Arthur's tales at it's best Kids Version

    As soon as you start this book you will not want to put it down. This is a great thriller. It has the begining and end of the reign of King Arthur, written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I recommend this book for ages 8-17. It has four stories about the rule of King Arthur. It has romance and adventure in this Novel. You will never forget about this great fiction Book

    King Arthur and His Knights of THe Round Table

    One of the most compelling things about King Arthur is the way all the characters are linked together. Percival however is not directly tied to the others. We constantly see evidence of Percival's special role as both a participant and an observer of King Arthur's reign. King Arthur has all the elements that one would expect in fantasy and a hole lot more that one wouldn't expect in fantasy. King Arthur is both sensual and beautiful. How could King Arthur end in such a tragedy.

    King Arthur and His Knights of the round table

    If you like an old chivalrios book this is the one for you. This version of king Arthur is true to detail for the middle ages so if you like this stuff it's good but if you don't it gets pretty boring. Good if you like the theme - Three Stars

    King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table

    This book is beautifully set out with many quests that you can follow with the knights. The collection of the Arthuian tales will make you want more. You will almost believe that Arthur will come back in the end. A must for adventure readers.
