Otto of the Silver Hand

Otto of the Silver Hand by Howard Pyle is a classic medieval tale following young Otto, the gentle son of a fierce robber baron. Raised in a peaceful monastery, Otto is thrust into a brutal world of blood feuds when his father’s enemy, Baron Henry, kidnaps him and severs his right hand. Rescued but forever changed, Otto receives a silver prosthetic. Armed with kindness and integrity rather than a sword, he rises above vengeance to heal his fractured world.
