The Musketeers were the most revered group of men in the whole of France and a young d'Artagnan wanted nothing more than to travel to Paris to join their ranks. But d'Artagnan's road to becoming a Musketeer wouldn't be as simple as he anticipated. Filled with minor mishaps, duels for honor, and a run-in with three of the finest Musketeers, d'Artagnan's adventures ultimately lead him to what it truly takes to become a Musketeer. This adapted and condensed version of the tale by Alexandre Dumas will introduce young readers to the beloved characters from the original and give them a taste of the adventure-filled classic. The 10 Minute Classics series from Flowerpot Press is a great introduction to classic literature, designed to spark a love for great stories and an openness to the classics as reading skills progress.
