But in repeated refrains, his magic horse, sword, and helmet each proclaim, 'You might not' after the knight falls off his horse with an 'Oof, ' gets his sword stuck in a tree, and falls into a mud puddle when he tries to put his helmet on. The horse, sword, and helmet even hide when the knight enters 'ye olde tournament, ' reasoning, 'He can't be a knight without us.' But when the ever positive knight journeys to the tournament alone, the three show concern. 'He'll be exhausted, ' said the horse. 'He'll be cut to pieces, ' said the sword. 'He'll lose his head, ' said the helmet.' And when the knight is scheduled to battle The Lord With the Scary Looking Sword, the three doubters come to the aid of the knight when he declares, 'For the first time my life, I'm The Knight Who Might Not.' Tension builds as the knight, now with his horse, helmet, and sword, gallops closer and closer to the scary-looking sword-wielding lord until...'DONK!' Beckett emphasizes the slapstick in his cartoons. The protagonist's magic objects all have googly eyes and eyebrows, which is a little unsettling when the helmet is on the knight's head but does add to the silliness.</p> <p><strong>Puns, humor, and onomatopoeia emphasize the value of trying.</strong>--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p>-- "Journal" (7/8/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br>
