David and the Phoenix - Paperback

by Robert G. Natelson (Foreword by), Sarah M. Awa (Editor), Joan Raysor (Illustrator)

The classic children's adventure in a freshly edited, introduced, and annotated edition.

"How do you tell a true Unicorn from a false one?"

"I-I don't know."

"I thought not. Where do you find the Philosopher's Stone?"

"I don't know."

"Well, then, I shall ask a simple one. What is the first rule of defense when attacked by a Chimera?"

David squirmed uncomfortably. "I'm afraid I don't know that, either," he said in a small voice.

"There you are!" cried the Phoenix. "You do not have a true, practical education-you are not ready for Life. I, my boy, am going to take your education in hand."

Edition also available in Latin text as David et Phoenix.
