Robin Hood

There has always been great debate as to whether Robin Hood actually existed or not. I for one believe such a man existed but that tales grew around him, making his deeds greater and greater, and at times unbelievable. Familiarize yourself with the stories of Robin Hood. Most tales are steeped in Catholicism, such as the PDF below. For Pagan parents, the idea of having a child read anything heavily religious might be against current home teachings. If this is the case, learn the tales and retell them to your children.

Pointers:

* Robin Hood took from the rich and gave to the needy.
* Robin Hood and his men helped anyone, regardless of religious beliefs and class.
* Robin Hood stood up against corrupt government officials.
* Robin Hood also stood up against corruption within his own religion.
* Robin Hood rewarded honesty.
