Robin Hood of Sherwood Forest

Robin Hood, an outlaw, lives in Sherwood Forest and is always wanted by the king. Robin is a friend to the poor and takes from the rich, which the king cannot abide....Can Robin continue to escape his capture?

I know that this is a children's book but I truly enjoy all tellings of the Robin Hood story. This book was full of adventure and even though it was written in 1968, it still held my attention and was riveting. I give this book an A! ( )

Robin Hood is the story of a guy that "steals from the rich and gives to the needy." The king does not not like Robin Hood for that reason. Robin hood does not like the king because he is taking to mouch tax money from the poor citizens. He literally takes everything they have. Eventually he is able to conquer the king and is a hero!

I love Robin Hood. Not only does it have a good story line but I think that it teaches good morals too. It is a classic that I think all adults and kids should read. Plus, a good hero story can always make my day.

I think that Robin Hood could ne used in a classroom to teach students that nothing could can come from being greedy but a lot can come from trying to help others. I think it could also show them how times really were different in the past, and that it really is part of history.
