An enchanting take on the legend of King Arthur from War Horse author & former Children's Laureate Michael Morpurgo There stood before me an ancient man swathed in a dark & tattered fleece his long hair & beard matted with filth his face grey with grief & age Holding the sword out in front of me I backed away until I felt the sink behind me & I could go no further His eyes followed me all the way' When Bun Bendle is struck blind he feels like he is drowning in blackness But the discovery of an ancient tomb & a strangely familiar sword changes him forever The Sleeping Sword weaves a contemporary tale with Arthurian legend in a way that is utterly spellbinding A gripping children's adventure from the master storyteller of An Eagle in the Snow Listen to the Moon Shadow Arthur High King of Britain & An Elephant in the Garden ------Former Children's Laureate Michael Morpurgo needs no introduction He is one of the most successful children's authors in the country loved by children teachers & parents alike Michael has written more than forty books for children including the global hit War Horse which was made into a Hollywood film by Steven Spielberg in 2011 Several of his other stories have been adapted for screen & stage including My Friend Walter Why the Whales Came & Kensuke's Kingdom Michael has won the Whitbread Award the Smarties Award the Circle of Gold Award the Children's Book Award & has been short-listed for the Carnegie Medal four times He started the charity Farms for City Children in 1976 with his wife Clare aimed at relieving the poverty of experience many young children feel in inner city & urban areas Michael is also a patron of over a dozen other charities Living in Devon listening to Mozart & working with children have provided Michael with the ideas & incentive to write his stories He spends half his life mucking out sheds with the children feeding sheep or milking cows; the other half he spends dreaming up & writing stories for children For me the greater part of writing is daydreaming dreaming the dream of my story until it hatches out
