The Adventures Of The Brave Knightness Janneke Schotveld, illustrations Milja Praagman A collection of exciting stories about a brave little girl Perfect for children who enjoy reading out loud Beautifully illustrated by Milja Praagman She had already been different from the other children when she was a baby. From a very young age, she would stand up for the weak, no bullying in her presence. No side wheels for her either, she taught herself how to ride a bike. Nor did she need swimming lessons. It was clear that she would never become a hairdresser, dentist, professor or bee-keeper. No, she would become a knight, the bravest knight of the whole country. The Adventures Of The Brave Knight is a collection of exciting and humorous stories about a heroic little girl who returns lions to the zoo, catches purse snatchers and rescues bakers from a tree.
