Page is the second book in the quartet Protector of the Small (1999–2002), by American fantasy author Tamora Pierce, published in 2000 by Random House.

[1][2] It details the training of Keladry "Kel" of Mindelan, the first female page in a hundred years.

Kel, though allowed to continue her training by instructor Wyldon of Cavall, is still not accepted by many of the male pages, and is therefore supported by Neal, Merric, Cleon, and Owen against Joren.

Kel had proved her worthiness of being a leader when she guides her group of fellow pages through the "Battle of the Cliff".

Lord Wyldon continues to make life hard for Kel by forcing her to improve her jousting skills, (She called the routine maddening) and made her join the elite page archers group, which Kel does more enthusiastically because if she advances, she gets to "play" with different kinds of arrows.
