Lost in a dark, strange forest, his father captured and his mother
murdered, young Robin is rescued by a motley crew of misfits--the
Outcasts. Among them he finds Marion, his most constant friend and the
love of his life. As the courageous band of warriors grows ever
stronger--joined by the jovial Friar Tuck and the mighty Little
John--Robin seeks to unite them all to bring relief and justice to the
poor and to punish the evil Sheriff of Nottingham. In collaboration with
the celebrated illustrator Michael Foreman, whose art soars from the
page, Michael Morpurgo's retelling of the classic story combines
contemporary relevance with dramatic excitement from beginning to end.
