Knights of the Round Table (A Stepping Stone Book)

The legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table has been around for generations, and this version lives up to the reputation of the classics. Perfectly suited to the 9-12 target audience (yet well-written enough to interest adult readers), this chapter book spans the life of Arthur, hits on the most popular legends, delighting young readers who love fantasy and action. Great reinforcement of choosing honesty, loyalty and kindness over deceit, selfishness and cruelty by juxtaposing the honorable Knights against several misguided characters who bring about their own eventual defeat.

The book does well to compress several well told stories of King Arthur in one book and at a level the kids can understand. Because of the kind of stories it tells I would recommended this book for children 8 and older. However the book does well in capturing good character and keeping your word, being brave in hard times and having honor.

I bought this for my 7 year old granddaughter as a 'just because' gift. According to her mother this is now her favorite book and she reads it by herself so she doesn't have to wait for someone to read it to her. She does, however, read it out loud to the cat.

Fun and good book for kids, we homeschooled this year and this was a book project. It came fast and package good, nothing was ripped or damaged

This book was one of three Bullseye Classics we bought for my son's second grade English class. He picked this one up as soon as the box arrived and had it read within an hour. He loved the stories and was able to re-tell them to his little sister. I hadn't heard the stories about "Big Hands" or "What do women want?" This collection really got his imagination going and he wants to read more about King Arthur. To tell you the truth, I didn't notice the problems with sentence structure, etc...I was enjoying the stories too much.

This was probably a myth, but it still is great!!!!!! It is a tale of loyalty, friendship, and goodness. I would recommend this to everyone, even if you think it's childish, but in reality, it is not childish, because it is a story of loyalty, friendship, goodness, and the soul.

This series did not disappoint. My grandson devoured the book the day he got it and has reread it several times. It inspired him to role play knights and kings with his little brother.

Previous reviewers were quite tough on this book. I have a 2nd grade son whom reads on a 3rd grade level, this book is written very well it is not an adult novel and has multiple simple sentences but so do beginning writers (those whom are probably the readers).

Exc quality, happy as!

A great option to introduce beginner readers to Classical Literature

Excellent
