Worthy reading for all budding squires and damsels." — Kirkus Reviews ( starred review )   In the third installment in the Knights' Tales series, Gerald Morris tells the laugh-out-loud tale of King Arthur's most celebrated knight and nephew, Sir Gawain, and the Green Knight. With lively illustrations by Aaron Renier, Morris creates a captivating and comical medieval world that teems with humor and wonder.   This chapter book is sure to set young readers on another rollicking and hilarious Arthurian adventure!   "Broad humor, graced with lively language will have readers laughing along with this boisterous Arthurian adventure." — Yellow Brick Road   Praise for The Knights' Tales series   "With his quirky sense of myth and legend and tongue-in-cheek humor, [Morris] brings to life the court of King Arthur and his knights." — Curled Up with a Good Kid's Book   "The book's brevity and humor make it accessible to reluctant readers, and it is a fantastic read-aloud." — School Library Journal   "This trim novel, with simple vocabulary and brief, witty chapters, is an ideal fit for early readers . . . but fans of the legendary characters may find particular delight in this irreverent and unabashedly silly exploration of Arthur's court and his most influential knight." — The Bulletin   "This is often quite funny, and just exciting enough to capture the attention of budding young Arthur-philes." — Booklist
