The Hero of Bremen

by Margaret Hodges

Book Overview

An elegant retelling of a gentle, little-known tale honoring the chivalric virtues of service and sacrifice is all the more beautiful for its understated quality. Beautiful watercolor and colored pencil illustrations were inspired by the 16th-century paintings of Hans Holbein. A visual treat.

Colorful

I think that Margaret Hodges wrote the book very colorfully and very well. The pictures were great. They were very bright and I liked them. I think it was put together very well and there was a good meaning to the story, which is that it doesn't matter what shape and size a hero is.
