Don Quixote

By Michael Burgan and Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

Book Overview

Cervantes' tale of the deranged gentleman who turns knight-errant, tilts at windmills and battles with sheep in the service of the lady of his dreams, Dulcinea del Toboso, has fascinated generations of readers, and inspired other creative artists such as Flaubert, Picasso and Richard Strauss. The tall, thin knight and his short, fat squire, Sancho Panza, have found their way into films, cartoons and even computer games.

Really really really good!

Out of all the "wishbone" books i have read, this is my favourite. in fact, this story is so incredibly well adapted, it is one of my favourite books ever! it is hard not to like people getting attacked by windmills...
