SIR GALAHAD AND THE SACRED CUP
THE DEATH OF KING ARTHUR
A gentle doorway into the world of Camelot, this collection gathers the classic tales of King Arthur’s court and reshapes them for young ears. The stories, drawn from Sir Thomas Malory’s medieval anthology, are told in clear, straightforward language while preserving the charm of chivalry, adventure, and courtly love. Bright illustrations accompany each episode, giving listeners visual cues that bring the knights, queens, and enchanted forests to life.
One of the first adventures follows Queen Guinevere’s sleepy morning, when she rushes to a hunt only to meet the dashing Sir Geraint. Their chance encounter with a mysterious knight, a lady, and a short‑tempered dwarf sparks a quest to uncover the stranger’s identity and win the queen’s favor. The tale balances courtesy, bravery, and a touch of mystery, offering children a taste of loyalty and courage without venturing into later, more perilous battles.
