I stumbled on this book while in the children's section of the library. I am not sure why I never read it as a child. The Sword in the Stone is the first book of a series called The Once and Future King by T.H. White. It is a beautifully written version of the first part of the King Arthur story -- the education of the "Wart". It is a light hearted adventure story. I have enjoyed reading it and highly recommend it. All the characters are charming and Mr. White's descriptions make me feel like I am cozy friends with each one. I can't wait until my kiddos are old enough to read this one.
