Description
A medieval adventure of knights, queens and castles with perfectly mirrored illustrations.
By: Shawn Harris
A medieval masterpiece of two queens, two castles, two knights … and one duel. Told entirely through symmetrical illustrations (created by squish-painting), this unique picture is a thrilling adventure for young artists and fans of myths and legends.
Two castles sit on a hill, home to two queens. But the queens would rather not share, and each sends a knight to joust for the land. "Let’s hold a duel. The one who wins will rule the hill in whole."
There’s just one problem – when the winner stands up in the middle of the field, no one is sure which side they came from.
- Perfect for children learning symmetry, colours and shapes.
- For fans of knights, castles and medieval legends.
- Themes of sharing, conflict resolution and community.
- Made entirely from the school art technique of squish-painting (or butterfly painting).
- For fans of The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds and Mix It Up! and Press Here by Hervé Tullet.
