| The Knight in Rusty Armor Is a
book that makes you look at things differently. At the start of the book, the Knight is
considered a noble knight. His armor is very shiny and his horse is well-bred. He fights
for any cause, anywhere, at any time. He has a wonderful wife and one son. He fights in so
many battles that he doesn’t look after the needs of his wife and son. He fights so
often that he decides to leave his armor on all the time and this way he is always ready
for battle. But since his visor is always down, he shuts out his family. His family only
sees him in his armor and they start to forget what the "old knight" is like. To
help his family, the knight goes on a mystical adventure to take off his metal and
spiritual armor. Along the way, he faces many challenges that he must overcome to find
true happiness. I highly recommend this book. I gives you insight about yourself and might
change the way you look at things. If I were to rate this on a scale of one to ten, I
would give The Knight in Rusty Armor an eleven. Spring
