The stories explore themes of adventure, heroism, and fantasy, depicting the richness of folklore that spans across different cultures. The opening of the collection introduces the legendary figure of Robin Hood and sets the scene in medieval England, where he lives as an outlaw beloved by the poor for his bravery against corrupt authorities. As Robin Hood navigates his life in Sherwood Forest, he encounters Little John, a formidable stranger who soon becomes his loyal companion.
