King Arthur (Scholastic Junior Classics)

Tales of knights and adventure!

In the center of the courtyard of a medieval church stands a single block of marble. On top of the marble lies a heavy black anvil. Struck deep through them both is a glittering sword.
Whoever can remove the sword from the stone is the rightful king of Britain. Brave knights, important lords, and strong men from across the kingdom all try and fail. Then one steps forward whose touch frees the sword like magic. But could the next king of Britain really be...a young boy?
