Bjorn F. Rorvik: Mala vrla viteza

25,99

There are only two knights left at the castle after everyone else has gone to a jousting tournament. It’s now their responsibility to find the missing princess and bring her back by evening, as per the king’s order. The king is the king, so who are they to deny his wishes? On the other hand, Rosebush would much rather stay home and admire his new leopard-print shoes, and Bang is miserable because he constantly falls, bumps, and trips. The princess was very probably snatched by the dragon. They embark on a daring journey to the dragon’s den, where they find the princess, who doesn’t want to return home at all!

Rørvik’s whimsical story challenges preconceived notions about knights, kings, princesses, and dragons, offering a fresh perspective on traditional fairy tale roles. This fun and meaningful book challenges stereotypes and empowers children to be themselves, regardless of gender or societal expectations.

Recommended age: 6-10 years. The book has been honored with the Zlata hruška (Golden Pear) seal, a prestigious literary award for children’s and young adult books in Slovenia.

Important: please note that this book is a Slovene edition.
