Description: "Cervantes is regarded as the author of the first novel and the inventor of fiction. This book explores the noble and "mad" adventures retold by distinguished writers and artists in Edwardian books, collections, home libraries, schoolbooks and picture books internationally that deviate from traditional retellings yet still speak to the knight-errant's lasting influence and appeal to children"--
