Inhalt

Digory is the laughingstock of Batty-by-Noodle because he prefers singing and exploring to fighting. When he returns from a stroll with a dragon's tooth stuck in his hat, the villagers assume that he killed the creature to get it. The neighborhood squire is so impressed with the boy's apparent valor that he immediately dubs him a knight and sends him off into the world to perform heroic deeds and find a princess to marry–undertakings that Digory would prefer to avoid. During his travels, he stops off at the castle of King Widget to inquire if there are any knightly tasks that need doing. While he is making himself useful around the keep, he meets Princess Enid, who shares his fondness for poetry, songs, and expeditions. When the King offers him a permanent place, Digory is elated–until he learns that he'll have to slay the local dragon first. In this affectionate send-up of heroic fantasy, Digory is a reluctant knight who gamely tries to live up to the role of dauntless hero, while Enid is a refreshingly independent princess.
