Back 3

Why did I choose to dress as the main character, Martin the Warrior?

Because he is the hero of heroes in the Redwall book series and this book tells his story of bravery, courage, strength and truth.

This is the tale of the mouse warrior, Martin, and how he gained his title and fame so appreciated in Redwall history.
