A surrprising find!

My four-year-old picked this book while at the library. I was like, great, a book about a deer...but it's actually really GOOD! It's set in the Middle Ages (believably so, I might add), in a forest owned by a Baron. Harald, a peasant boy, befriends a great stag who eludes many hunters. The plot moves at a good pace and has a lot of excitement, conflict and danger for both Harald and the animals of the forest. Older children would probably enjoy it as well. I know I did!
Darn Good Book

I am a college student studying to get a degree in General Ministries. I tell you it is a shame that this book is out of print. It is one of the best children's books I have ever read!! It has an interesting plot. It takes place during the Middle Ages. Harald is a young boy who is captivated by this Great Stag. When he finds out that the Baron has organized a hunt to kill the stag, Harald sets out to confuse the Baron's hunting dogs. The book contains vibrant and life-like watercolors and colored pencil drawings - something that is rare in the newer children's books.
