A beautiful new edition of Dick King-Smith's Tumbleweed, from the renowned author of Babe The Sheep-Pig.
Of all the knights in Merrie England, Sir Tumbleweed is the clumsiest. He dreams of winning a tournament and slaying a dragon, but he can’t even stay on his horse. As for rescuing a damsel in distress – chance would be a fine thing!
Cue the lion, the witch and the ... unicorn? With their help, Sir Basil the Beastly, current jousting champion, is going down! Literally.
After that, they just need to find a dragon (preferably small) and a damsel (beautiful, of course). What could possibly go wrong?
This is Book 8 in the The Dick King Smith Centenary Collection Series. See all The Dick King Smith Centenary Collection books here.
