Igraine’s parents are magicians, and so is her older brother. But the feisty little spitfire just about to turn 12 wants none of that: She wants to be a knight.

Igraine’s parents make a magical mistake while preparing their daughter’s birthday gift and transform themselves into pigs.

This happens at a most inopportune moment: Evil Osmund has decided to steal the family’s priceless collection of talking, walking Books of Magic. He wants to be the most powerful wizard in the world. Ordinarily, Igraine’s parents could resist this pretender’s efforts easily — but not in their present state. To return to human form, they must brew a potion that includes a fresh supply of giant’s hair, and the only person available to secure that specific ingredient is their daughter, spunky, spirited Igraine.

If Ramona Quimby suddenly found herself in a magical, medieval world of sorcery and chivalry, she might recognize Igraine as a kindred spirit. Like Ramona, Igraine is energetic, warmhearted, and smart. She is determined to meet the demands of this most important mission.

Creative, high-spirited, and full of unforgettable creatures like a three-headed dragon, Igraine the Brave a story so full of irresistible detail — and tons of really funny illustrations — you will laugh out loud!
