About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their child is ready to move from being a passive reader to an active participant in a story, particularly if they are struggling with focus or persistence. It is an ideal bridge for the middle-schooler who loves logic puzzles but needs a narrative hook to keep them engaged with longer texts. The story explores the legendary education of a young King Arthur, emphasizing the resilience and critical thinking required to lead. While the 400 plus pages may seem daunting, the inclusion of 35 interactive riddles breaks the narrative into manageable, rewarding segments. This structure encourages a growth mindset by rewarding problem-solving as much as reading speed. It is a secular, historical fantasy that promotes teamwork and self-confidence, making it a wonderful choice for parents looking to sharpen their child's cognitive skills through the lens of classic mythology.
