Children's Knight

This is a very straightforward book on the Medieval Knight. It is geared toward children and gives a look into the qualifications to become a Knight, what stages of preparation were required, who could be or could not be a knight, etc. It is a fun read and very easy to get through. If you have a child interested in Robin Hood or this particular period in time, this is a great book.
