It's the first of a series of five books, the third of which - "The Grey King" - won the Newberry for some year in the late 70s - early 80s. The books are based on Welsh myths and the legend of King Arthur. The second one (the first one I read) is particularly interesting, but I can't recall the title. The main character is a boy named Will who comes from a family of eleven children. Karen Christenson
