Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
The classic collection of the tales of Robin Hood, the bow-wielding hero who steals from the rich and gives to the poor.
Howard Pyle has provided possibly the best and most complete rendering of this classic tale of the famous yeoman-thief of Sherwood Forest. Each chapter of this collection offers new and exciting stories, including the famous scenes of Little John and his staff besting Robin on the bridge, Robin winning the golden arrow at the Sheriff of Nottingham’s archery contest, his complicity with courageous Will Scarlet and musical Alan-a-Dale, the continual outsmarting of the Sheriff, and many others. Robin Hood continues to stand as an exemplary model of fair play, generosity, and compassion.

About Howard Pyle
Howard Pyle (1853–1911) was a native of Wilmington, Delaware, with a passion for historical illustration, writing, and teaching. His talents quickly revealed themselves when he was twenty-three and Roswell Smith, the owner of Scribner’s Monthly, encouraged him to leave his small town for New York City. Pyle went on to re-create traditional legends through his illustrations in Harper’s Weekly and, most famously, in his novel The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood, which he both wrote and illustrated.
