The Sword in the Tree
by: Clyde Robert Bulla/Paul Galdone

Hardcover. NY, Thomas Y. Crowell, reprint, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Good, Hardcover in a lightly worn and chipped dust jacket, 114 pages. Illustrated with b&w drawings by Paul Galdone. In the days of King Arthur there stood a mighty oak tree within the walls of a castle. Peace reigned in the castle until the fearsome night when Lionel, longlost brother of Lord Weldon, returned to cause trouble and unhappiness. It was then that Shan, the son of Lord Weldon, took on the duties of a knight and hid the sword in the hollow of the giant oak. The days that followed were filled with adventures that tried the courage of the young boy. Shan was surprised by bearded robbers in the woods. He met noble knights in plumed helmets, and eventually he even made a trip to high-towered Camelot. His story is filled with the pageantry and color of England in King Arthur's time. It creates a vivid picture of the Knights of the Round Table and the wisdom of King Arthur himself.

by: R. K. Rowling/Lisbeth Zwerger

Hardcover. NY, Lumos/Scholastic, reprint, 2018, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Hardcover in pictorial boards, 160 pages. No dust jacket issued. The Tales of Beedle the Bard contains five richly imaginative stories of adventure, cunning, heartache, and, of course, magic. They are to the wizarding community what the tales of the Brothers Grimm are to Muggle families. This lush new illustrated edition has been translated from the ancient runes by Hermione Granger and is presented here with extensive commentary by Albus Dumbledore. And now Hans Christian Andersen Medalist Lisbeth Zwerger interprets these classic tales with beauty and tenderness (and wit), illuminating them for modern readers. Clean copy.
