(4) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Benjamin and his friends, who pretend to be knights, take on a real quest to help an elderly neighbor. Childhood rivalries escalate, leading to a tragic conclusion. Alternating viewpoints (Benjamin's first-person perspective and an omniscient third-person narrator) are distancing, but readers will be drawn into the boys' real and imagined adventures.
