Tassie and the Black Baron

If you like medieval stories, castles, knights and fights to the death all wrapped up in a bit of time travel then you will love Tassie and the Black Baron.

On a day trip to Huffington Castle with her very embarrassing family Tassie finds herself transported back in time where she has to save a certain Prince Billy from the evil Black Baron Brutus. This causes problems for Tassie as Prince Billy is actually a wimp who only wants to marry his Princess Violetzka and write terrible poetry. He is not your fight to the death sort of guy.

Tassie forms a great plan to help out poor Prince Billy but then her family travel back in time as well and Tassie’s plans turn upside down.

Plenty of laughs in this story
