The Storybook Knight

Helen Docherty

Age Level: 4 to 8 Grade Level: K to 4

What’s a knight’s greatest power? Stories, of course! From the beloved author/illustrator team behind The Snatchabook comes the ultimate storytime book about castles, knights, dragons, and the power of stories!

Even dragons love a good story…

Leo was a gentle knight in thought and word and deed. While other knights liked fighting,
Leo liked to sit and read…

When Leo’s mom and dad pack him off to fight a dragon, he takes a shield, a sword–and a pile of his favorite books. But can a story be as mighty as a sword?

This delightful rhyming story about books and the joy of reading is also perfect for kids who love dragon books, adventures, brave knights, and books about castles!

Praise for The Snatchabook:

1 Indie Next Pick I dare you to try to read The Snatch-a-book silently to yourself. You can’t do it. The book is so wonderful it demands to be read out loud. And besides, if you didn’t read the book out loud, how would the Snatch-a-book hear it?–Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick This ever-so-sweet story begs to be read out loud.–Booklist The gorgeous illustrations are a perfect match for the lively text. This book is a fabulous fit for both storytime and one-on-one reading. Children will be begging for this book to be read to them every night-clever ones will claim they want to keep the Snatchabook happy.–School Library Journal The husband-and-wife team of the Dochertys have a winner in this heartwarming tribute to the essential role of bedtime reading in the lives of families.–Publishers Weekly The story is sweet and the illustrations darling.–Kirkus This whodunit with an uplifting ending will appeal to fans of How the Grinch Stole Christmas! … [it] celebrates bedtime reading as a ritual to be revered, and features a thief who merely wants to share in the fun.–Shelf Awareness Pro
