<p><b>A knight whose name became a promise.</b></p><p>Long ago in Poland, there lived a knight named Zawisza the Black - the bravest champion of his age, victor of a thousand tournaments, and trusted friend to kings.

Parents will love the timeless lesson at its heart.</p><p>Perfect for ages 5 to 9, for bedtime reading, and for any child learning what it means to be trustworthy.</p><p><i>Zawisza the Black</i> is Book Two in <b>The Greatest Knights</b>, a picture-book series celebrating the real heroes of history, one remarkable life at a time.
