Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A knight whose name became a promise.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. But what made him a legend wasn't his strength or his sword. It was something simpler, and far rarer: Zawisza always kept his word.From a boy with a wooden sword to a hero remembered for more than six hundred years, this is the true story of a real knight whose promise was stronger than iron - and of the saying that Poland still treasures today: 'You can rely on him as on Zawisza.'Told in gentle, read-aloud prose and brought to life with warm storybook illustrations, Zawisza the Black is an inspiring tale about courage, kindness, and the quiet power of keeping your word. Children will love the brave knight, his black warhorse, and the loyal raven who follows him through every scene - see if you can spot the raven and the Sulima coat of arms hidden on every page. Parents will love the timeless lesson at its heart.Perfect for ages 5 to 9, for bedtime reading, and for any child learning what it means to be trustworthy.Zawisza the Black is Book Two in The Greatest Knights, a picture-book series celebrating the real heroes of history, one remarkable life at a time. (Book One tells the story of William Marshal, the greatest knight who ever lived.). …
