Sweet story about a knight and her horse going on a camping trip. Nice intro to the graphic novel format.

November 2018 - for a graphic novel, this works well as a read-aloud (and would make a good easy reader, too). Ben really likes it.

Adventures in Cartooning is a great idea - and my students enjoy the books. They introduce several characters and by building a story around those characters, the basics of cartooning are explained to the readers. This new book is actually a complete story in a blend of comic and picture book with the familiar characters of the knight and Edward, the horse. Edward and the knight are going camping, with Edward carrying such an enormous amount of supplies that he gets hung up on the portcullis and then pops loose. After repacking, the twosome find a camping spot and have fun toasting marshmallows. But when bedtime comes, there is a major problem - the knight's teddy bear is missing! With lots of funny situations, this story is sure to have readers laughing and then practicing their own cartooning skills.

I read an e-book provided by the publisher through NetGalley.

A graphic novel for young kids just starting out to read on their own or to be read to young children. I offered to let my niece read this and she wasn't interested. The story is cute enough and I'm sure people find this funny, but it did not speak to me personally. The little knight was bossy and pushy and I felt a little cruel to his horse.

Anyway, I'm sure this is great stuff, I'm simply the wrong reader for it.

Sleepless Knight is a precious story about a camping trip between a knight and his horse. The knight overpacks, loses his teddy bear, meets critter friends, and eventually falls asleep. Many kids will relate to this comical story, and they will love the instructions on how to draw the characters.

Book 194 towards my goal of 280! 4/5 stars for this kiddo book! Not gonna lie, we are supposed to read a book about a knight for @wwreadingchallenge this month, and I was only 1 book ahead of schedule for my Goodreads goal, so I picked up this cutie! The illustrations are so cute, and I loved the story! Great for littles who love Knights, horses, camping, or smores ;) highly recommend for littles!

Silas, age 9, says this book is pretty funny and has a good story. His favorite part is when he got his teddy back. Would read more by this author. :)
