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.

Michael Morpurgo, OBE, has written over 100 books, including the international bestseller War Horse. Michael Foreman's numerous books for children have earned him widespread recognition as one of the world’s best-loved illustrators.
