What is The Tournament Volume 3 about?

In thirteenth-century Italy, Loupio is eager to take part in a thrilling tournament. Although the other competitors are older, stronger and better trained, the brave young orphan refuses to give up. With help from his friends, Saint Francis of Assisi and Brother Wolf, Loupio discovers that courage, honesty and teamwork matter more than size or strength. Set among knights, castles and cheering crowds, this lively illustrated adventure follows Loupio as he faces unexpected challenges and strives to achieve victory.
