Igraine the Brave by Cornelia Funke

5.0

This is a beautiful children's fantasy book. It is about a young girl who lives in a castle with her family, but Igraine yearns for adventure. She finally gets her wish, but she has to face dangerous creatures such as a giant, water snakes, lions and the evil Osmund who wants to destroy the castle. Together, Igraine and her brother have to protect the castle from Osmund and his knight. They also have to save their parents from living the rest of their lives as pigs. Igraine befriends a sighing knight who helps her on these two quests. Then Igraine is rewarded with honor for being chivalrous in these situations.
