Prepare the shining armor—the king’s in need of a new knight! But with Sir Simpleton “helping” Sam train in all the wrong ways, how will he EVER master the tricks of the trade?
Knight needed. Apply at castle. In just one week, the king intends to choose a new knight—and Sir Simpleton intends to make sure that young Sam has mastered all the skills he needs to know, from riding a big horse to rescuing a princess. Unfortunately, Sir Simpleton may not be the very best trainer: he dons a chicken suit instead of armor, fights a bored cow instead of a fiery dragon, and seeks wisdom from a bearded goat . . . instead of a wizard. Will Sam succeed in spite of his “teacher”? Kids will laugh out loud at the wildly funny illustrations—and enjoy watching a smart child outwit a delightfully silly adult.
