Don Quixote Of The Mancha

The story of the Spanish knight Don Quizote whose devotion to the tales of chivalry leads him into a series of bizarre adventures in the company of his faithful squire, Sancho Panza, blends fantasy, comedy and gripping narrative in a way that has appealed to children ever since it was first published. All the wisdom and humour of Cervantes'' great seventeenth-century classic are to be found in Parry''s very readable modern abridgement, enhanced by the delightful illustrations of Walter Crane, one of the greatest of all English children''s book illustrators.
