A review by cheriekg
Knight's Castle by Edward Eager

3.0

My kids have thoroughly enjoyed read-alouds of Eager's books before, so we were looking forward to this one. While still a fun, goofy, imaginative romp with great dialogue, this one was tougher than others. It relied heavily upon the plot of Ivanhoe, which neither my kids nor I had any familiarity with. That made it tough to follow along, though we did enjoy the characters and the interaction between the real and magic worlds. So, still a good book but maybe not quite right for today's audiences?
