Tell me more: 11
year old Alanna wants to become a knight, so she swaps places with her brother
(who wants to become a sorcerer) and becomes a royal page. She must face many challenges along the way
in order to achieve her dream, including learning how to use her healing magic. She has
to learn skills like sword fighting as well as do school work like writing and
maths. It is hard work, but what makes it easier is having friends. Her 2 closest friends are the Crown Prince
Jonathan, and George, the King of Thieves.
