read aloud with L&C
Like King Arthur, we didn’t read every chapter but we liked what we did read (a little more than half). Cam is sad we won’t read it all together now but is excited to try reading it on his own in a few years when we cycle back around to this period in history

A good book, especially if you like Robin Hood. However, if you don't like reading "thee" and "thou" language, this book is not for you. It is a wonderful compilation of Robin Hood's adventures, and I laughed out loud at many of them.

"Robin Hood tomaba el sol como un zorro viejo, sobre una piel de gamo extendida al pie del árbol de las reuniones. Con la espalda apoyada en el árbol y las manos alrededor de las rodillas, observaba distraídamente como el Pequeño John trenzaba una cuerda de arco con largas hebras de fibra de cáñamo, mojándose de vez en cuando las palmas de las manos y haciendo rodar la cuerda sobre el muslo. Cerca de él se sentaba Allan Dale cambiando una cuerda de su arpa.
Por fin, Robin se animó a hablar:
- Por mi vida, que prefiero pasear por este bosque que ser rey de toda Inglaterra. "

Read with my son. Felt more like bros in a forest and less like robbing the rich and paying the poor.

I went into this book knowing the general idea of Robin Hood - an outlaw taking from the rich and giving to those in need. I didn't know much more than that, so I went into this fairly blind. I enjoyed reading his adventures, but I did find them quite repetitive. Considering his adventures were really meant to be children's tales, I can forgive that. I did find Robin to be kind of a jerk at times, but others not so much. It was a fun and easy read. I may visit Sherwood again someday.
