Stranded on a mysterious island, young King Arthur encounters a dwarf with a giant son and a mother unicorn. As Arthur seeks aid, he unravels a tale of friendship and magic. What secrets does this enchanted land hold, and how will they shape Arthur's destiny? Dive into a world where legends come alive and the unexpected awaits at every turn.
From the publisher
This tale about King Arthur, a dwarf, the dwarf’s giant son, and a mother unicorn was originally the concluding episode of an Arthurian romance written in France in the Middle Ages, Le Chevalier du Papegau (“The Knight of the Parrot”). “An authentic Arthurian romance inspired this foray into fiction for Giblin. . . . Ewart’s vivid watercolors bring a sense of wonder to the tale.” – Kirkus Reviews
