Parsifal's Page by Gerald Morris

In this book young Piers wants nothing more than to be called Pierre and to join the courtly world that his mother tells tales about, much to the disgust of his father, a simple blacksmith. When a knight rides up, Piers gets his chance, but he quickly learns that neither he nor the knight knows much about the courtly world--and Piers gets a new master, Parsifal. I enjoyed this story, perhaps especially because although I have read some about the Fisher King, I hadn't read all that much about Parsifal. The story ended on a heart-warming note.
