Read another tale of Robin Hood

I read the book Robin Hood Of Sherwood Forest. The book was written by Ann McGovern. I really loved this book. It is the second time I have read a Robin Hood book. What happened in this story was Robin Hood, and his merry men did what they normally did, take from the rich give to the poor. The sheriff of Nottingham tried to catch Robin Hood at an archery contest but he captured Will. So simultaneously 40 of Robin's men took out bows and started to fire at the captors. At the Kings archery contest, robin and Little John won first and second place. One day a monk came into the forest. He did not state his name. However, latter he said he was King Richard!!! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes Robin Hood. Because it is all of the legend but it has its own little twist and turns.

Robin Hood

Robin Hood is one of the books I enjoyed reading. It has action, and adventure and a few historical facts. Robin Hood takes place a long time ago, probably in the middle ages. Robin Hood is the main character. He is handsome, brave and he has a bood heart and he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. Robin Hood has a little romance. For example when Robin says "I will win the archer competition and take the gold arrow and give it to the princess to be mine!" I would recommend this book to people who like action and adventure.

Robin Hood

Robin HoodBy Ann McGovern...9-19-02 Over the summer I read the book Robin Hood. It was about a boy named Robin Hood that went hunting with his father. The book was set in the mid-evil times. Robin Hood is a man who doesn't give up. He has black hair and brown eyes. Since Robin Hood and his father were peasants they weren't allowed to hunt the king's deer. When they were hunting the sheriff's men caught them. They took Robin Hood's father, and a man chased after Robin Hood. Robin Hood had a knife in his hand. He threw it back at him, and it killed him. Robin Hood was found by the Outcasts of Sherwood Forest. He met a girl named Marion. Marion is a careful girl who looks out for Robin Hood. She is an albino person with white skin, pink eyes, and blonde hair. If you want to see what happens to Robin Hood and what adventures he has get Robin Hood. My favorite part is when Robin Hood was running from the Sheriff's Men because there was a lot of action. For example, when he kills one of the men, and he runs through the forest and gets away. I also like the part when he is at the archery contest. I liked it because I like to read about people shooting bow and arrows. It was cool when he won the gold arrow. The gold arrow has something to do at the end of the book. The person who I didn't like was the sheriff. I didn't like him because he was always trying to get Robin Hood. He wasn't very smart either. In my opinion this book was very good. I liked it because there was a lot of action and adventure. Like when Robin Hood and his men try to get treated equally and start attacking trade caravans. Or when they sneak into the castle to get someone. I think that a person who likes action and adventure would like this book. I would also recommend this to someone who likes history because there is a lot of historical facts like Prince John and Richard the Lion Heart.

Unforgettable...

I have always been entranced by the heroic feats and daring adventures of this legendary outlaw. He braved prison and the rope to so cunningly outwit the Sherrif and defy the tyrant, Prince John, and brought protection and hope to the people of 12th century England. This book is a great intro to the tales of this timeless hero and I would recommend it to anyone with a passion for adventure. Books are the gateways to the universe. Take the journey...
