An abridged version of the legend of Robin Hood, who plundered the king's purse and poached his deer and whose generosity endeared him to the poor. Includes discussion questions.

"When Clare Gisborne and Little John return to school after the Locksley Riot, there's rebellion in the air and Robin Hood's name graffitied on every wall. Power dynamics are shifting--now, instead of being a feared bully, the daughter of Locksley's most hated criminal finds herself shunned by classmates and pelted with yoghurt and rotting fruit. Meanwhile at Sherwood Designer Outlets, Robin has plans of his own. He is determined to hack Sheriff Marjorie's office so that the rebels know her every move - and to work with animal rights activists to end a cruel trophy hunt inside the grounds of Sherwood Castle . . ."--Amazon.

"While Sheriff Marjorie's guards grow ever more ruthless, a rebel spy has unearthed her secret plan to flush Robin, his fellow rebels and tens of thousands of desperate refugees out of Sherwood Forest. Robin and his best friend Marion join an audacious scheme to scupper a flood that will ruin lives and destroy millions of acres of forest. But it's the most daring operation Robin has ever undertaken, and the rebels may have bitten off more than they can chew"--Back cover.

Robin is pleased to hear from his old school friend Alan Adele, not least because Alan's father is Guy Gisborne's top henchman. Now that Gisborne is in the running to be elected Sheriff of Nottingham, he needs to keep his criminal activities under wraps. So when Alan tips off Robin and the rebels at Sherwood Castle that Gisborne's waste disposal business is costing its workers lives, the stakes become very high. Robin is soon literally digging the dirt on his arch enemy to finally bring him down in this latest high-octane adventure.

Robin and Will Scarlock's band of rebels are enduring a bitterly cold winter in the derelict Sherwood Castle Resort. But when the boss of a major delivery company - the world's second richest man - asks for help to track down the kidnappers of his beloved dogs and offers to pay, Robin finds himself at the centre of the biggest hacking operation of his life.

"John Little knew poaching deer would be a risk, but under heel of their Norman lords, the Saxon peasants are starving. When the Sheriff of Nottingham's men destroy John's village for his crime, he flees into the tangle of Sherwood Forest with the only other survivor, a young girl named Marian. But dangers lurk there, too: the outlaw Robin Hood soon takes them prisoner. Robin is all dazzling bravado, dashing looks, and clever tricks--but John discovers that his fight against oppression means a rough and dangerous life, constantly hunted. As the newly dubbed Little John gets an education in how to fit into Robin's band, Marian, too, grows into a force to be reckoned with. Thrust into a world of fearless bandits, uncertain allies, and merciless vendettas, Little John and Marian earn their place--and build an unshakable friendship with Robin Hood"--Dust jacket.

Follows the adventures of Robin Hood, the good-humored outlaw and skilled archer who, along with his followers, endeared himself to the poor through his generosity.

"Sixteen-year-old Isabelle learns that she is the daughter of Robin Hood when her mother, Marien, sends her from their priory to get an urgent message to her father, aided by the Merry Men"--Provided by publisher.
