He carried it to his moss-covered castle in the Great Silent Swamp and locked it away in the deepest dungeon. "Not fair!" protested young Robin. "That Word belongs to everyone!" And he resolves to rescue it and bring it back. Robin is joined by the Shoelace Man, the Woman Who Turns, and an entire circus troupe, including "twenty tiny Chihuahua dogs, each with a silver bell in its tiny left ear." They march on the castle, subdue the dragons who guard it, and win back the word after a most surprising musical battle. Children of all ages will be charmed by Robin's quest and its exciting conclusion. Gerda With's drawings and Helen Gershen's calligraphy strikingly complement the text. Herb Meadow, one of Hollywood's best-known writers, has long pursued a just-for-fun sideline career as a creator and teller of children's tales. Now he has committed one of his most popular stories to print, and the result is this delightful book.
