DESCRIPTION:
A traveling minstrel tells Wiglaf's fortune; it shows that he can improve his lot by performing a gallant act. Though Wiglaf is the smallest member of the family, he is made to do all the work, and is constantly picked on by the others because he is reluctant to kill any living thing. For humorous adventure fantasy that is better crafted and more nourishing, try Jon Scieszka's Knights of the Kitchen Table (Viking, 1991) and other works in the "Time Warp Trio" series.AVirginia Golodetz, Children's Literature New England,
