From School Library Journal

Gr 2–5—Continuing in their adventures, a knight and her horse, Edward, are thrown into a quest to save the king, only to find that his castle has been taken over by a movie director. Although the book touches on topics such as facial expressions, body language, and proportions, it teaches very little overall and instead, much like other entries in the series, focuses on promoting creativity through zany scenarios and humorous characters. The drawing style is simple and appealing and can be easily mimicked by budding artists. However, it is one thing to show interesting characters, but quite another to teach how to draw them. Children will appreciate the humor, but some will be disappointed by the lack of instruction. Consider purchasing where the original is popular.—Peter Blenski, Greenfield Public Library, WI
