My rating: 5 out of 5

This is the hilarious story of three friends who get tossed back in time to the age of King Arthur. While trying to find a way home, they must deal with the villainous Black Knight, a giant, a dragon, and Merlin the Wizard. I really loved the interactions between the three boys in this book. They act and talk to each other just like real kids do. I would recommend this book both kids and adults because the comedy in this book is something people of all ages will laugh at.

This would be a great book to use to read-aloud to kids over the course of a week or two. The chapters are short, simple, and easy to follow. After reading “Knights of the Kitchen Table,” kids will want to go and read more books in this series (I know I do).
