The Angry Little Knight

(4) K-3 Translated by David Henry Wilson. Illustrated by Katja Gehrmann. Sir Hothead, a diminutive but irascible young knight, decides that he's ready to fight a dragon, but when he runs into one, the young fire-breather is as unsuited to tussling as the boy is. There's too much text for such a simple tale, which over-relies on cuteness, but the illustrations, consisting of simple black lines and thick, uniquely colored brush strokes, are redemptive.
