Explanation Concering Books The Sword in the Stone (Little Golden Book)
Author Carl Memling and Illustrator RH Disney (1963). Wart was a lonely page who lived in a Sir Ector’s stone castle and was unlike anyone else in the castle. He washed dishes, helped the carpenter, polished armor and swept the castle. Suddenly, one day a wizard named Merlin appeared. He claimed that he had to give Wart lessons. Merlin would change Wart into various animals and with each transformation, Wart learned valuable life lessons. When he became a bird, he gained wisdom as he saw the world from a bird’s view. One day Wart accompanied Sir Ector and Kay to a tournament where the King of England was to be crowned. Sir Ector was sure that Kay would win and earn the crown. They arrive at the tournament and suddenly Kay realizes his sword is missing. Wart ran as fast as he could, but the inn they stayed at was closed. He ran and ran and suddenly saw a sword that was stuck through an anvil. Wart quickly pulled it out and handed it over to Kay, but he saw some letters written in gold. It claimed whoever pulled the sword would be the King of England. Wart, who would become King Arthur was ready to become a great king. He was wise enough because Merlin had prepared him with specific lessons. The Disney style illustrations are the best. It feels as though you are watching a short version of the film. Colorful and old fashioned. The illustrations emphasize the laziness and goofiness of both Sir Ector and Kay. Merlin looks like a wise and fun grandfather and Wart is the focal point of the entire story. He’s illustrated with such innocence and good character. He works hard and we don’t see a smile on his face until he is crowned King. Target Audience: 2-5.Specify Books Supposing The Sword in the Stone (Little Golden Book)

Cute book for young children! Nice tie in.I read this to the cutest kindergarten classroom and they absolutely loved it. It's one of those that balances a great story (for story's and imagination's sake) and an important message. They thought it was funny every time Arthur turned into a different animal. I'm keeping it to read to my child one day.
A childhood classic about being born to greatness and actually accomplishing it. With great power comes responsibility.I read this to the cutest kindergarten classroom and they absolutely loved it.
