Product Description

Review

"* "Action-packed... Lively pictures - dazzling with brilliant colours and shading... a feast for the eye." Junior Education * "I don't often use the word 'brilliant' but it's tumbling off the end of my quill at the moment like an acorn from a Greenwood bough." The School Librarian * "Williams is one of our very best retellers of the classics." The independent on Sunday"

Told in lively comic-strip style, this book relates eleven colourful action-packed tales about Robin and his merry men.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for any kid interested in Robin Hood, 5 April 2003
This review is from: The Adventures of Robin Hood (Paperback)
This is the only book I've found which adapts the legend of Robin Hood in a child-friendly manner. My four year old, although he doesn't understand all the witty asides in the cartoon strip story, really enjoys listening to the story. It helps to answer the million questions he asks me about Robin Hood, although it throws up new ones too!
The story is presented in short chapters which makes it easy to dip in and out of, and the pictures have a wealth of detail which are good fun to sift through. Even my two-year old has been spotted looking through it on her own.
I think this book is probably aimed at older kids, but I would recommend it for anyone interested in Robin Hood. I am not actually very interested in him, but I still enjoy reading the book (just as well, as I have to read it every day!).

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully illustrated and well written., 29 Jun 2008
By Bella Blue (Nottingham) - See all my reviews
My 5 year old son was given this book for Christmas along with a Robin Hood outfit. He loves to be read the stories over and over again and is equally happy to sit and flick through the pages for himself, them being full of quirky little illustrations - hes always able to spot something hes not noticed before.I feel this series of books by Marcia Williams are very well suited to boys (or girls) who may be find it hard to sit and listen to a story without plenty of illustration, as they are kept engaged by the colourful and detailed pictures filling every page. My son has now requested others in the series, so thats why I'nm on here shopping for more by Marcia Williams - what a great way to educate our youngsters on the great myths, legends, inventors etc etc.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inventive and colourful
I agree with the two previous reviewers. An ideal rendering of these stories for young children with a butch Maid Marian and a porker of a Friar Tuck. Read more
