The Pen & The Sword

The story of a powerful Samurai who abuses his authority and is defeated by something that seems so powerless - the writings of a pen.

This story symbolizes to children that the egotistical quest for money and power that is often encouraged is not the wisest path.

The book includes a micro-story that explains the author's catalyst for his entrance into martial arts that most adult readers should identify with and find entertaining. The appendix contains a context dictionary to aid young readers who may not understand some of the words they read. This simple dictionary allows the reader to find definitions directly applicable to the word in context without stopping to consult and publication or the Internet.

We hope that you enjoy this book as much as your child.
