About this listen

Most knights want to slay dragons. Sir Percival just wants to find a very sturdy bush to hide behind.

In the Kingdom of Nitetown, bravery is measured by the size of your sword and the loudness of your roar. Sir Percival has a very small sword and a roar that sounds more like a polite cough. He spends his days polishing his armor not for battle, but so he can use it as a mirror to see what’s sneaking up behind him.

But when the King sends Percival on a quest into the Whispering Woods, the “Timid Knight” must face his greatest fears: allergic dragons, ticklish mountains, and worst of all socializing. Along the way, Percival discovers a secret that the “brave” knights never learned: sometimes, being the most nervous person in the room is exactly what makes you a hero.
