Beatrice Coleman, aka, Bitty is a hot mess! At least that is what she is told by the popular girls as they're attacking her in the school cafeteria. Bitty is too tall and too skinny. She has a pointed noise, mousy brown hair and wears not cute clothes to school. She doesn't have a single friend and she spends her time alone, watching TV, studying or singing ole school tunes with her parents. She’s crushing on the most popular boy at school, who thinks she's a joke. And if that isn't pathetic enough, her Phys Ed teacher keeps pressuring her to try out for girls' basketball. Tha | |  | | Emily, Brave and Swift Emily Holmes lives in a grand, ole castle in Scott's Lynn, England during medieval, 15th century. She's no ordinary girl. She's the daughter of a noble and courageous knight, Sir Guy and the fair and beautiful, Lady Elena. Life should be wonderful, right? She's eats regularly, she can read and write and play instruments, wears all the latest fashions and though forbidden for young ladies-she's an excellent swordsman. Ah, but she would give it all up for just one thing...
What happens when a young girl is awakened in the night by loud, scary noises? If she's Emily, Brave and Swift, the daughter of Sir Guy, she gathers her sword, leaps from her over-sized bed and tracks down the beast that has invaded her cozy castle.
Children will love this rhyming tale about a daring, young girl: the daughter of a knight, Sir Guy who is away battling or jousting or fighting off dragons all the time and an absent-minded mother busy with arranging social gatherings, teas and luncheons for the Ladies.
