Bookroo's summary

A young knight believes a wall keeps him safe from the dangers on the other side, like tigers and ogres. But as water rises and a crocodile lurks on his side, he must confront his assumptions. Who will save him when he's in over his head? Discover the unexpected ally from the other side and explore what truly lies beyond the wall.

From the publisher

A knight who feels secure on his side of the wall that divides his book discovers that his side is not as safe as he thought, and the other side is not as threatening.
