Knight in Training: A Horse Called Dora: Book 2
David Melling, Vivian French
A funny, exciting series for younger readers, by the bestselling Vivian French and David Melling.
Sam J. Butterbiggins’ only ambition is to be a Very Noble Knight, but he has a problem – he’s been packed off to the castle next door to stay with his aunt, uncle and annoying cousin Prune while his parents are away.
But Sam’s discovered an ancient scroll listing the six quests to be completed in order to become a knight, and he’s already completed the first one! Now he’s found his True Companion (Prune), next on the list is to track down a Snow White Steed. But when Aunt Egg orders Sam and Prune to journey to Weasel’s Hill to deliver Horace the warthog back to his owner, it looks like the young knight-in-training looks will have to put his quest on hold. Or will he …?

Love the characters and the continuing adventure

I thought if only knights ride horses how could he find one. I liked Sam the best as he was very innocent and did the right unlike prune. I would reccomend it to 7+.

It makes you want to read more. I wonder if Sam will complete all the challenges to become a knight.

I chose this book because I like the Knight in Training series. Sam and Prune have lots of adventures while they try to do Noble Deeds to achieve different levels on their training. There's also a doodlebird called Dandy who always says Awk!

I liked the bit about the cabbages!

It was very strange because there was a special kind of bird called a "doodlebird" which I found quite strange. My favourite character was called Weebles the pony because he had a very funny name. Id tell my friends it was a very good book

I really liked Prune because she stuck up for what she believed and took no stick from anybody, not even her unfair and moody mother. I would definitely recommend this book to someone else because it’s a really funny book and I really enjoyed reading it.
