Step into a world of castles, courage, and codes of honor. This exciting nonfiction book takes kids ages 7 to 12 deep into the real world of medieval knights-what they wore, how they trained, who they served, and why their values still matter today. It's not just about swords and battles (though there's plenty of that too). It's about what it really meant to become a knight-from being a page at age seven, to years of training, to the final, noble moment of knighthood.

Young readers will explore everything from armor and weapons to jousts and castle life. They'll meet famous historical and legendary knights, discover surprising facts about medieval life, and learn the meaning of chivalry in a way that's both exciting and easy to understand. Along the way, they'll be invited to think like a knight, act with bravery, and build their own personal code of honor-no sword required.

Filled with fascinating details, inspiring stories, and powerful lessons in courage, kindness, and loyalty, this is the perfect read for kids who are curious about history, adventure, and what it means to stand up for what's right. Because being a knight wasn't just a job-it was a way of life.
