Three knights. One crystal. Only one is willing to earn it.
When the king dreams up the perfect birthday gift for the queen - a legendary crystal filled with rainbows - he sends his three bravest knights to bring it home. Sir George cooks up a fake in the castle kitchen (How smart am I!). Sir Harry buys a shiny lookalike at the market. But young Sir Ernest packs bread, a map, and a rope... and walks the long, hard road - blazing deserts, dark lonely nights, dragons, witches, and trolls.
Back at the castle, three identical crystals sparkle on three cushions. So the king announces... AN EXPERIMENT! Because a knife and a furnace can tell what eyes cannot: real things - like real effort - survive testing.
A warm, funny rhyming read-aloud about diligence, patience, and doing the work, with chantable refrains kids will shout along with by the second read - and a seek-and-find twist: sharp-eyed readers can spot the fakes before the king does!
Ages 4-7 - Perfect for fans of The Three Little Pigs and The Empty Pot
