LITTLETON, CO, August 06, 2012 (Press-News.org) Children's Literary Classics is pleased to announce that the children's book, The King's Ransom (Young Knights of the Round Table), written by Cheryl Carpinello, has been selected to receive the Children's Literary Classics Seal of Approval. The CLC Seal of Approval is a designation reserved for those books which uphold the rigorous criteria set forth by the Children's Literary Classics review committee, a team comprised of individuals with backgrounds in publishing, editing, writing, illustration and graphic design.
When youngsters, Gavin, Bryan and Philip join forces to clear the name of a friend who has been wrongly accused of murder and robbery, the three boys overcome numerous obstacles, including their own fears, to put matters straight.
This medieval story takes place in the fabled land of King Arthur and his royal knights. True to the legends of King Arthur, The King's Ransom sets the stage for grand adventure and includes many of the core elements present in other Arthurian tales, including honor, loyalty and friendship. Cheryl Carpinello's knowledge of medieval history is apparent in this timeless classic which is rich in historical realism and is as enlightening as it is entertaining.
Carpinello's telling of this heroic tale is sure to introduce young and even reluctant readers to the joy of reading. The King's Ransom (Young Knights of the Round Table) is a literary treasure and earns the Literary Classics Seal of Approval.
Children's Literary Classics, an organization dedicated to furthering excellence in children's literature, takes great pride in its role to help promote classic children's literature which appeals to youth, while educating and encouraging positive values in the impressionable young minds of future generations.
