I received a copy of each book below for my review and was very pleased with the books, both content and quality. My daughter is a little old for the books (she is 7), but she even enjoyed sitting down and reading them to me. I'm planning to pass them onto a little boy in our family that would really enjoy them because he loves knights and horses. He's going into kindergarten this fall so these are perfect for him to start practicing reading and moving up as he learns. Plus the books all have a positive message so that is a big plus in my book. All to often cartoons and even the books about them are not really child appropriate in my mind.
