Epigraph

Dedication

To Dr. Royce Simpson with appreciation for his years of patience and kindness in caring for our beloved pets

First words

Once there was a brave young knight known as Sir Galavant who rode around on a great war-horse shouting, "Bing on the fire-breathing dragons! Bring on the man-eating giants! Bring on the ogres and trolls! I'll clobber the brutes, I will!"

Quotations

If I'm not half brave enough, then I must pretend to be brave! I'll put on a big act!
