About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the concept of fairness or is beginning to notice that people are often judged by how they look rather than how they act. It is an ideal choice for navigating social dynamics where peer pressure or the desire to be 'right' outweighs the importance of being kind. The story follows King Arthur and his loyal knight, Sir Gawain, as they face a riddle that can only be solved by a woman of unusual appearance. When Gawain treats her with genuine respect and grants her the freedom to make her own choices, a magical transformation occurs. This retelling of a classic Arthurian legend is perfect for children aged 6 to 10, offering a sophisticated but accessible look at integrity, autonomy, and the idea that true beauty is a reflection of how we treat others.
