GREEN SMOKE

A family vacation in Cornwall becomes a magical journey into the past when Sue meets R. Dragon, master storyteller and lover of sugar buns. In return for sharing her "elevenes," Sue hears tales of King Arthur, Childe Roland and Mollie Whuppie. Sian Phillips reads with as much magic as R. Dragon tells stories. Her interpretation of the characters leaves the reader with a clear impression of each. This charming story whets the appetite for more tales springing from the mists of the past. The book is a wonderful choice for 8 to 11-year-olds as well as anyone who loves Arthurian lore. L.S. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN 92]
