Before the legendary Arthur became king, he took lessons from a dragon . . . Artos is a lonely child, teased or ignored by the other boys in the castle of Sir Ector. One day, he follows Sir Ectorâs runaway hound into a mysterious, dark cave, where he encounters a dragon who offers him the gift of wisdom. Both frightened and intrigued, Artos becomes the dragonâs student and gains what heâs always longed for: the friendship and respect of other boys. Under the guidance of the dragon, Artosâs life begins to take shape in a way he could never have imagined. But has Artos really learned everything the dragon has to teach? And what does the dragon mean when he refers to him as âArtos Pendragon,â or âArthur son of dragonâ? This ebook features a personal history by Jane Yolen including rare images from the authorâs personal collection, as well as a note from the author about the making of the book.
