Now with a reimagined look! Join a peasant boy who wants to be a knight in the laugh-out-loud funny, highly illustrated first book of the New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Tim chapter book series from Spy School author Stuart Gibbs. Tim is just a peasant, but he dreams big. He wants more out of life than to grow up to be a woodsman like his father. Unfortunately, the only route to success in the kingdom of Wyld is to be born a prince. Still, Tim is determined. He is brave and clever and always tries to do the right thing—even though he rarely gets the credit for it. Then news spreads that Princess Grace of the neighboring kingdom has been abducted by the evil Stinx and Prince Ruprecht needs a legion of knights to join him on his quest to rescue her. Tim finally has the lucky break he’s been waiting for, the opportunity to change his station in life. And even though he doesn’t know how to ride a horse or wield anything more deadly than a water bucket, he’s going to do whatever it takes to make sure his dream becomes a reality.

I wrote a book about moments. I titled it Once Upon A Time mainly because in remembering the moments I was writing about, I was reimagining life as a dream. It is not about a made-up fantasy I wished to live, but about a very real one that I saw as a dream, as a "once upon a time," seeing its "happily ever after." It is not about heaven but about earth, about everything glorious and heavenly from this earth I live in. It is about sins and dirt. It is about a dirty life made by a sinless God. It is not about Jesus. This book is not about Jesus's life, but about the creation he made. It is not about where Jesus went but about the trail he left, not about what he said but about how the storms listened to it. It is not about what Jesus could have looked like, but about the stares he received. It is not about how he matured men, but about how he made children of them. It is about how he made Sarah laugh and David cry and Thomas doubt and Mary notice. This book is about these rather ordinary moments making up a most beautiful dream. And what a shame it would be to miss even a single one of them.

The course of our lives is often predetermined by our family and cultural mindsets. Traditionally humans seem to follow the edicts of current and historic thought even though many cultural ideas prove to be unreliable across history. Do things change or, were we wrong about a number of ideas from the beginning? We can change attitudes and consequently influence our personal future. We can cultivate our intuition and create new possibilities for ourselves. Some people create misfortune without even knowing it! Success for them becomes a fantasy that never seems to materialize because certain choices were made without accurate perceptions or reflection. This accounts for many people becoming compliant and disappointed. Even overwhelmed. Some decisions are made out of habit and the same routines abet certain people in overlooking the possibilities that could begin a new and exciting future. This book details information on the individual aspects of success and is a unique approach to understanding how history and our environment can help us or hinder us. This work outlines a system of success that has proved effective for Americans competing in the workforce or struggling with life’s personal challenges. The book also contains historical facts regarding humanity and the previous thinking of our ancestors that brought us to the present. Not all of their thinking was healthy or productive. In this current season of human existence many people have become swayed by misinformation and so, I have chosen politics and religion as examples of how age-old thinking can bring about unintended but large-scale consequences. Even our chosen official’s minds loiter in outdated and inefficient thinking which fatigues their brains thus, not assisting them in assisting us! Everyone seems to embrace their own version of the truth however this habit can be costly when that truth turns out to be inaccurate. As separate assemblies of peoples we have gone against nature in creating many differing, even conflicting truths that have caused divisiveness among people that does not have to influence our interactions in destructive ways. Perhaps its time for us as a species to embrace the wisdom that has been our inheritance since the time of our own invention. I hope my words will do their part in bringing us back together as was the original intention of our creation.
