Overview

What was it like to live in a medieval castle? This unique book, perfect for reluctant readers and aspiring architects, shows you.
 
For any child who has wondered what life was like in a real medieval castle, this book introduces an architectural marvel through pop-ups, hidden panels, and the helpful commentary of a castle ghost. Every aspect of existence in a castle--from how it was built, to how it was defended from attackers, to what people ate and how they lived--is illustrated and explained in this uniquely designed story.
 
Oversize and chock full of facts, this book makes an excellent addition to a pop-up book collection and is ideal for gift giving and as a starting point for future research.

Praise for The Castle:

"Too many graphic novel adaptations of classic literature just break down the stories into digestible panels; this is a powerful interpretation of Kafka’s timeless themes.”  --Publishers Weekly
