Publisher Description
Robin has made twenty arrows; his father approves five and flings the rest into the fire. Then an invitation to Nottingham Fair offers the boy a chance to prove himself—far from home.
In 1188, at Locksley on the edge of Sherwood Forest, young Robin lives with his proud, prickly father, Hugh Fitzooth, and his warm-hearted mother. A summons from his uncle George of Gamewell promises a Nottingham Fair full of marvels, but Hugh hesitates: old grievances keep him from the company of nobles, and the roads near Gamewell are said to be troubled by outlaws. At last he agrees to send Robin, with a year at his uncle’s hall in prospect. Robin is eager to go, though his father warns him to trust his own hands and eyes. What will the fair—and the road to it—ask of him?
