This is the exciting story of Walter, son of William Tell.
Set in the early 1200's of Switzerland, young Walter has to face danger in the eye. The title of the book centers on the fact that the boy must trust his father to shoot an arrow at an apple that rests on Walter's head.
It is a very interesting story, and I like the writing style very much.
Bring your courage with you as you read Walter's story...
