Considered by many to be the first and possibly greatest novel ever written, Miguel de Cervantes's tale of two friends against the world has at last been been retold for children in a bilingual edition by Cervantes scholar and translator Tom Lathrop. Jack Davis brings the humor and satire of Don Quixote roaring to life with his hilarious and insightful famous cartoon style. *** This bilingual (English/Spanish) edition includes Davis's illustrations from Linguatext's 2012 English version of "The Misadventures of Don Quixote" with a slightly shortened English text written and translated into Spanish by Tom Lathrop.

Obsessed with tales of gallant knights, Don Quixote, a middle-aged man from La Mancha, decides to take his own adventure. Donning rusty armor and riding upon an old horse, he sets off to change the world and save his invented damsel in distress in the name of chivalry. Unfortunately, Don Quixote and his squire Sancho Panza are met with a host of ill-intentioned characters, and the pair often find themselves the butt of a joke rather than chivalrous saviors. This renowned tragic comedy, written by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, was first published in Spain in two parts in 1605 and 1615. This is an unabridged version of John Ormsby's English translation from 1885.

An up-to-date translation of Cervatnes' classic 17th century novel of an old man who goes somewhat insane and believes he is a knight errant.
