Before Arthur became a legendary king, he was just a boy with a wizard for a teacher and a heart full of dreams. The Wizard and the Future King tells the story of young Arthur as he grows, learns, and begins the journey that will lead him to greatness.
Arthur wanted to be a knight like his brother. He tried to be kind, humble, and clever… but sometimes he forgot. He didn’t know he would one day ride to war, pull a sacred sword from a stone, or become one of the most famous kings in history.
This beautiful retelling of the first part of Arthur’s life intertwines an engaging fictional narrative with real historical facts, sources, and traditions from the rich tapestry of Arthurian legend. Young readers will meet Merlin, Morgana, and Uther Pendragon as Arthur comes of age, faces challenges, and steps into his destiny.
Perfect for readers who love both story and history, this book introduces children to the world of Arthurian legend in an accessible, thoughtful way. With gorgeous illustrations and educational tie-ins about the origins of the King Arthur stories, students will not only enjoy the narrative but also learn about the historical events and places behind the legend.
