“Ridiculous cute fun.”
“This is the third storybook in this series. Rather than teaching drawing throughout the book, it tells a story but the end pages have drawing instructions. At the front, as usual, are diagrams on drawing the knight and Edward (the horse). At the back are diagrams for drawing new characters to this book: gnomes and ogres. The story is cute. The ogres are waking up and headed for the castle. The knight frantically calls everyone to arms but the King and his kitchen have a plan already in place that will take care of the ogres in a more friendly manner.”
“My kids thoroughly enjoy the Knight & Edward series by James Sturm, so when I saw this for review on NetGalley, you better believe I requested it! In this installment, the Knight and Edward, her trusty steed, discover that there are OGRES asleep just outside the castle! As she tries to rally the king into an armed response (taking the king away from his comic book, rude!), she is pressed into service in quite a different way - in the the kitchen. There's more than one way to deal with an Ogre invasion! This was as cute book, in a great series. I can't wait to get my hands on the print version for kids (they're not quite up for ebooks yet).”
